Truffle Cream & Porcini Ravioli

Truffle Cream & Porcini Ravioli Recipe

When I lived in New York City, I had a favorite little Italian Trattoria I would go to whenever I had the chance. One of my favorite dished there was only offered on the Special Menu and was a Truffle Cream Ravioli. Somehow, every time I would go to this Trattoria, I would “Luck-Out” and it would be back on the menu. And Trust me…I wasn’t complaining lol.  I loved the dish so much that of course I had to create my own version of it.  Truffle flavor is one of my most favorite flavors. So unique… & quite sexy in my opinion, it can spice up even the already best of dishes at times. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Truffle! This a great dish for a special occasion such as an anniversary or romantic dinner. I simply love to enjoy this dish with a really good Cabernet. Enjoy, enjoy, ENJOY-  Cheers!
