Diamond of the Kitchen

One of the finest, most highly-priced ingredients in cooking: the Black Truffle.

A member of the fungi family, the truffle reveals its subtle nutty flavor best when thinly sliced. On a recent photo shoot for Chef Adair, I had the pleasure of shooting the fabulous truffle and letting a piece melt on my tongue.

Yum.
