This post may as well be written as a recipe for a do-it-yourself luxury sandwich.

  • 2 pieces of bread
  • Lots of truffles
  • Some butter
  1. Spread butter on bread.
  2. Add truffles.
  3. Refrigerate for 2 days to allow flavours to soak through.
  4. Lightly grill and serve.

An incredibly simple invention from French chef Michel Rostang, who names this dish “LE “SANDWICH” TIEDE A LA TRUFFE FRAÎCHE” – I think it means ‘The Truffle Sandwich’?

Michel Rostang is a two-star chef based in Paris. His two daughters are also in the restaurant business with him, and have been featured in numerous culinary magazines.

Rostang’s restaurants are renowned not only for the rich and gourmet flavor yet also for the decadent interiors which reflect an impeccable eye for artistic appreciation. Both Michel and his wife Marie enjoy collecting beautiful art objects and displaying them throughout their restaurants. Their restaurants are some of the most popular in Paris, France.
