Ingredients

250gr of tagliatelle egg (quality of egg pasta is super important here! It’s what makes or breaks this dish, believe me!)
4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil with white truffles
1 clove of garlic
2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder

Boil water for the pasta and cook the tagliatelle al dente. Usually it should not take longer than 4-5 minutes for the Campofilone Egg Pasta from Italy. Meanwhile, in a saucepan heat some extra virgin olive oil with truffles with the garlic. Let simmer just for a couple of minutes. Drain the tagliatelle and set aside a little of the cooking water. Transfer the pasta to the pan with extra virgin olive oil with truffles, adding the cooking water required to emulsify all of the ingredients. Discard the garlic and transfer the pasta into a serving bowl. Sprinkle some unsweetened cocoa powder on the pasta. Serve and enjoy! * Important – do not cook the extra virgin olive oil with white truffles, rather let the oil heat up a little and then take it off the heat.
