I'm Jonathan, and, like many people this past year, my food intake has been a symphony of slapdash home cooking experiments and zhuzhed up leftover takeout while I patiently awaited the day when I could return to my one true love — eating in restaurants. But one thing that's majorly elevated even my least exciting meals has been this amazing Truff truffle-infused hot sauce ($17.98+).
Full disclosure: The first time I gave Truff a try, it was not quite what I was expecting, and I wasn't completely sure how I felt about it. But that soon changed, as I became obsessed with the flavor, and found myself reaching for it with nearly every meal. This stuff grows on you in a serious way!
Before we get too deep into my favorite ways to use this stuff, let's start by breaking down the three main Truff sauce options out there: there's the delicious classic black truffle sauce ($17.98), a "Hotter" sauce ($17.98) for those looking for more bite, and the one I use the most while simultaneously trying to make it last forever (a fool's errand, sadly) — the much sought after white truffle hot sauce ($34.99).
I've already mentioned how good these are on pasta and pizza, but it's worth restating! I even convinced my parents — who are staunch Italians and suspicious of anything that might disrupt the flavor of their precious tomato sauce — to give it a try, and they too became devotees of this magical elixir that puts the "fun" in ~fungi~.
Try it on round pizza, square pizza, white pizza, or pizza with red sauce — it's all delish!
But Italian food isn't the only place where Truff shines. I highly recommend you dip almost anything into it — whether that's fries, onion rings, fried pickles, you name it!
My girlfriend also became a big fan, and together, we loved it on everything from burgers to our attempt at homemade spicy tuna over crispy rice with some avo and a drizzle of Truff.
TL;DR if you wanna turn unexciting home-cooked meals and subpar takeout into something way tastier than you ever thought could possibly come out of your kitchen, do yourself a ~flavor favor~ and order some Truff hot sauces ASAP. They even come in a very classy looking box that's great for gifts!
