ROASTED CHICKEN WITH ROASTED GARLIC SAUCE AND WHITE TRUFFLE OIL WITH HERBED POTATO PUREE

Steps:

• For the chicken: Combine the olive oil, garlic and herbs in a very large bowl. Add the chicken and coat with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours or overnight. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Truss the chickens and season to taste with salt and pepper. Brush with the marinade. In a hot skillet, sear the breast sides 3 to 5 minutes until golden. Place in the oven and roast for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees and continue roasting, basting with the marinade and pan juices, until the chicken is cooked through and browned, about 30 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let rest.
• For the sauce: In large saute pan, heat the butter and olive oil over high heat until almost smoking and saute the shallot until caramelized, about 3 minutes. Add the wine and reduce until almost dry. Add the stock and the roasted garlic and cook until reduced by half. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and strain into a saucepan. Whisk in the butter. Spoon over chicken and drizzle with truffle oil.
• For the potato puree: Place basil, pine nuts and garlic and oil in a food processor and process until smooth. Add the cheese and salt and pepper to taste. Pass the warm cooked potatoes through a ricer into a large bowl. Add 1/4 cup of the herb puree, milk and butter. Mix until smooth, season with salt and pepper to taste.

CRUSHED WHITE BEAN BRUSCHETTA WITH WHITE TRUFFLE OIL

Steps:

• In a large pot, combine the broth, beans, garlic, and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until the beans are tender, about 45 minutes.
• Season the beans, to taste, with salt and pepper. Cool in the liquid. Drain the beans, reserving the garlic cloves.
• Place the beans in a bowl and coarsely mash with a potato masher. Add 2 to 3 cloves of garlic and continue mashing. Mash in the olive oil, but keep the mixture fairly coarse. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the scallions and parsley. Spoon into a serving bowl and drizzle with white truffle oil. Serve with a basket of crisp toasts and the bottle of truffle oil, for more drizzling.

MASHED WHITE BEANS WITH TRUFFLE OIL

Steps:

• Sort the beans to make sure they are free of stones or other debris. Rinse, then cover with cold water, refrigerate, and soak overnight.
• The next day, drain the beans, place them in large pot, and cover with the stock. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer the beans for 2 hours, or until they are soft, tender and yield to pressure when squeezed between your finger tips.
• Add the salt only in the final 15 minutes of cooking since the addition of salt earlier in the cooking process will result in tough beans.
• Pour the beans in to the bowl of a food processor. Begin to pulse the beans along with any of the stock that may have remained from cooking. Add all the remaining ingredients except the truffle oil and pulse together with the warm bean puree. Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and add freshly ground pepper if needed. Return the bean puree to a pot set over low heat or a double boiler to keep warm. Serve each portion of puree with a drizzle of truffle oil.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH WHITE TRUFFLE OIL, MARCONA ALMONDS AND SHAVED PARMESAN

Steps:

• Whisk together the lemon juice, mustard and some salt and pepper in a large bowl; slowly whisk in the olive oil.
• Add the arugula, almonds and raisins and toss gently to coat. Transfer to a serving platter. Drizzle with the truffle oil, scatter the Parmesan on top and serve.

MASHED POTATOES WITH CHANTERELLES AND WHITE TRUFFLE OIL

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes until very soft, drain and return to the pot.
• Mash the potatoes and stir in the butter then the chicken broth, adding 1/4 cup at a time. You may not need the entire cup. Stir until you get the consistency you like.
• Heat a frying pan and add the olive oil.
• Saute the mushrooms and garlic and season with salt and pepper.
• When the mushrooms are soft, which will take about 15 minutes, add this mixture to the mashed potatoes and drizzle with the truffle oil. Serve and top with parsley.
