Pan-Roasted King Salmon with White Truffle Cream
Farmers Market Wild Arugula, Heirloom Baby Cherry Tomatoes, Avocado
Pine Nuts, French Lentils, Meyer Lemon Vinaigrette
Inspired by a trip to the Farmers Market, fresh king salmon was pan-roasted and served over organic French lentils seasoned with just a kiss of my Meyer Lemon Vinaigrette along with wild arugula, irresistible baby cherry tomatoes, lightly toasted pine nuts, and avocado.
The sauce is made with La Tartufata blended with creme fraiche which added a velvety nuance to the dish. A preserved truffle product from Gourmet Attitude, La Tartufata is an earthy intense white truffle cream. This dinner was a delightful marriage of earth, garden, and sea. It’s the third in a series of three meals, each featuring one of the preserved truffle goodies in the “Trio Boutique.” We especially liked dipping the little heirloom tomatoes in the truffle cream sauce…
Trio Boutique
The folks at Gourmet Attitude suggest serving La Tartufata on rice, tagliatelle, gnocchi, meat and egg based dishes. At little goes a long way, use one teaspoon per person, blending with cooking water, cream and butter.

Oh this is the perfect post for me right now!! My sister gave me a little bottle of truffle carpaccio for Christmas and I had no idea what to do with it – until now! All three of these meals / dishes look fabulous!!! Headed over to take a closer look at A Heavenly Dinner!
Oh my goodness – that is a beautiful plate, just stunning! First of all, I’m a sucker for salmon…but add some truffle to the mix and I’m in love. Would love to try some of those truffle products (liked Gourmet Attitude on FB, w/ personal and blog accounts…for good measure). 🙂 Thanks for the chance, Lori Lynn!
I do not have a Facebook account, and do not wish to create one. I hope it does not affect my chances of winning these delectable oils. Would love to use them for an upcoming art and culinary event weekend.
No problem Rachel. Good luck.
