Plus, what are the odds of having so many truffles you cannot
consume them on the spot?

I like black (Italian) truffles cooked in with eggs or pasta, and white
(Italian) truffles grated over eggs, steak, or pasta right before
serving. I don't know of any better way to do it, and I'm
not sure there IS any better way to do it.

I suppose I would cotton to the idea of making real truffle
oil from truffles, just so that I know what non-fake truffle
oil is like, but I'm not sure it would be worth the cost.

Fake truffle oil is the sputum of satan. I cannot stand being
in the same building as it.
