Master Recipe:
Citrus-Truffle Vinaigrette

Ming says: One of the most amazing flavors on the planet comes from its underside... truffles. Their mysterious, sensual flavor and aroma add a unique dimension to any dish that no other ingredient can. The bad news is they're very expensive, but the good news is that you can find their essence in truffle oil, which is much cheaper and lasts much longer. My Citrus-Truffle Vinaigrette recipe will put the great flavor of truffles right in your fridge door.

Makes about 2 cups

  • 2 tablespoons minced shallots
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1 cup white truffle oil
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

In a blender, combine the shallots and Dijon mustard with the juice and blend until smooth. While blending, drizzle truffle oil in a thin stream until emulsified. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
