TREAT YO SELF

Decided it waz time for a little spoiling sesh. So i went to my favorite little market and picked up a bottle. Heavens it was not cheap. 60 dollars before tax!! but it will all be worth it when i open this bad boy up. Besides being naughty and taking swigs of the stuff, what can i drizzle it on? What do you buy (cooking related) to treat yo self?

I like to very occasionally buy expensive honey. And I bought the most expensive balsamico vinegar in a specialty shop 2 years ago, I'm not even halfway through that bottle.

Truffle oil is olive oil flavored with minute amounts of truffle.

I think they make an oil from the truffles themselves. Similarly to how they get oil from olives. They cold press the truffles.

While I can't say that doesn't exist or hasn't been tried, 99.9% of truffle oil you see on store shelves is olive or rapeseed oil flavored with truffle or artificial truffle flavor.

yeah that would be fucking dickton of money. Truffles cost $1200 a pound. A pound of olive oil produces 0.013 gallons of oil. So 1 gallon of pure truffle oil if it pressed like olive oil would be ~$100,000

Truffle oil is a scam

It's not really a scam. It says right on the bottle "extra virgin olive oil flavoured with black truffle".
