My niece brought three black truffles to me from Italy.  I have no idea what to do to get the best use of them.  I need ideas.  Help?

I recently watched an episode of Masterchef and Cat Cora made a truffled halibut with a corn zabaglione that looked just fabulous!  As I recall it was her recipe for pan seared halibut etc. with grated truffle to finish.  Risottto would be good and Ina had a suggestion for truffle butter on one of her shows.  Here is a sample recipe only,  http://whatscookingamerica.net/Sauces_Condiments/TruffleButter.htm

I have a couple of her books, but here is a link.  http://tinyurl.com/22tjzyv

I am sure someone will chime in on this topic

Truffled mousse?

Hi kyrose--

Have you ever checked out tastespotting?  You can search for black truffles.
