I want to order some winter truffles since they are in season here in Oz.

does any one have any simple recipes to use it with?

I'm not a chef so the ones I always see are pasta/risotto, etc

Thanks

Which knife are you going to use for truffle shaving?

I make truffle oil, 1 truffle will make 2ish liters and than I finish pizza with truffles shavings. I like a nakiri for truffle breakdown or a laser gyuto. Side dishes are a great choice or a truffle sauce on chateau briand.

I actually have a truffle slicer.. but I suck at using it... It's more effective at slicing my skin/finger than it is at the truffle.

what kind of knife is best or should I just use a grater?

Legend back the day of foodie forum and old knife forum would say an uber sharp gyuto. May be it is time to break out Shig Chuka ^_^

that is a tremendous waste of truffles... It's also quite dangerous.

truffle slicer similar to intelligent mandoline technique, move the item across the cutting plane with as little downward force as possible- as soon as you're pushing down you open yourself up to the risk of whatever you're cutting getting caught (on the blade, or whatever), flying from your hand and your hand continuing downward into the cutting plane. I've never seen anyone slice a truffle by hand (that is to say, with a knife), sounds like wiping your arse with dollar bills. :wink:
