Notes

When purchasing truffle oil, you want to make sure it's authentic as there are a lot of imitations on the market. A good quality oil should have a deep, earthy flavor and not be too pungent.

When flavoring anything with truffle oil, a little goes a long way so make sure you start out with a small amount especially if this is your first time trying this flavor.

You can use any variety of potato you enjoy, however, I prefer Yukon Gold potatoes as they are creamy and have a slightly nutty flavor that pairs well with truffle oil.

Serve alongside a dish of truffle aioli.
