Preparation Prepare a strong broth then melt the butter in it. Take it off the fire.

Add the Parmesan cheese and mix well until it becomes a thick smooth sauce. At this stage add the lemon drops.

Toast the bread slices and spread the sauce over each slice. Then add the truffles and season with salt and pepper.

They are delicious and tasty if served hot.
 
The Chef's tips Pepper should be used freshly ground. Grind it straight onto the garnished toast ready to serve.We suggest you try the Cortese dei Colli Tortonesi wine from Piedmont with your dish.
 
Curiosity Tuber magnatum pico also known as white truffles which ripen from October to December. They are white or greenish and have a strong, pleasant scent.
