Notes

Experiment with different types of truffles for varied flavors. Fresh truffles are ideal, but preserved truffles or truffle oil are great alternatives if you're on a budget. Don't skip using pasta water; it helps bind the sauce to the pasta. Pair with roasted vegetables or a crisp salad to balance the dish's richness. For a twist, try adding sautéed mushrooms or arugula to enhance flavor and texture.
