Truffle Oil

Truffle Oil is a flavored finishing oil created by infusing neutral oil with truffle aroma, commonly used in European and modern cuisines to add an intense mushroom-like scent to dishes like pasta, risotto and roasted vegetables. It is very concentrated and meant to be used sparingly. Nutritionally, Truffle Oil is almost entirely fat — about 100g of fat per 100g — and typically contributes monounsaturated fats and some vitamin E when based on olive or similar oils. Because it’s an oil-based flavoring, it contains virtually no protein or fiber. From a practical health perspective, truffle oil is best treated as a flavor enhancer rather than a primary cooking fat: it brings desirable aroma and some heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, but is calorie-dense, so small amounts are enough to get the effect without adding excessive calories.
