  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add 12 oz fresh egg tagliatelle and cook for 2–4 minutes, stirring gently, until al dente.

  2. 2

    While pasta cooks, melt 2 tbsp unsalted butter in a wide skillet over low heat, swirling frequently to prevent browning.

  4. 4

    Add reserved pasta water as needed, then stir in 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese until glossy and lightly creamy. Adjust heat to medium-low to avoid burning.

  5. 5

    Season with 0.5 tsp sea salt and 0.25 tsp black pepper. Plate immediately, then shave 0.7 oz white Alba truffle over top for aroma and flavor. Serve hot.

Personalized Q&A
Q. What's the key ingredient in this recipe?
The essential ingredient is shaved white Alba truffle, which brings a unique aroma and indulgent flavor. Paired with golden egg tagliatelle, these two elements define the signature luxury and texture of Tagliatelle al Tartufo Bianco.
