Truffle salt butter

This deeply savoury butter is easy to make and will keep in the fridge or freezer to use on toast, grilled corn on the cob, or steaks.

1. You’ll want about ½ tsp of Truffle Salt for every 200g butter. Simply mix the salt thoroughly into unsalted butter (you certainly don’t want to use butter that’s already salted). Shape into a log and wrap in greaseproof paper.

2. Transfer to the fridge, where it will keep for 3 months, or the freezer (cut into portions, if you wish), where it should keep for up to a year.

You need a sharp nose to sniff out truffles – a kind of mushroom that grows among the roots of beech, hazel, oak and birch trees. Pigs have traditionally been used for this task, but nowadays trained dogs have largely taken over because the pigs used to eat too many of their discoveries!

What does truffle salt taste like?

Well, salty obviously, but infused with an earthy, mushroom-like aroma and a deep, satisfying umami flavour.
