Ingredients
Truffle sauce: 3 1/2 oz. shallots, olive oil, 1.4 oz. smoked pork breast pigskin, 1 cup Port wine, 1 pint sauce bordelaise sauce, 1 cup fond blanc (chicken breast fond, 1.8 oz. black truffles. Truffle Preparation: 0.88 lbs. puff pastry; 0.88 oz. black truffles; 10 white truffles, about 1 oz. each; 1/4 lb. smoked pork breast); 3 1/2 oz. foie gras; Guerande salt; pepper
Preparation Instructions
Preparation of the truffle sauce: Mince the shallots. Sweat in olive oil. Add the pigskin and moisten with port wine. Reduce until dry. Moisten with the bordelaise, then with the fond blanc. Allow to reduce until obtaining desired thickness. Grate black truffles directly into the mixture and season. Truffle preparation: Spread dough to about 1/3 inch in thickness. Cut 10 round circles, each with about 4 2/3 inch in diameter. Grate black truffle into the center of each disc, using a pepper mill. Place a white, 1 oz. truffle on top. Lay a thin slice of smoked pork breast around it. Place 0.35 oz. of foie gras on the truffle. Season with coarse salt and pepper. Fold the edges of the dough over the truffle and close it, forming a round dough ball. Turn the ball so the fold is on bottom. Brush the all with egg yolk. Allow to rest for 1 hour in a cold place on sulfuric paper. Just before serving: Cook the truffles in their crust in a 428 degrees F. oven for about 10 minutes. Pour the truffle sauce over the serving dish and place the truffle ball on top of it. Serve the remaining sauce in a gravy bowl.

Truffle with Veal bacon and foie gras

While all truffles have an earthy flavor, each kind has its own distinct taste and fragrance; white truffles have a creamier taste, while black truffle is known for their woody notes. If you are interested in experimenting with truffles, you should consider picking up a bottle of truffle oil. There is nothing quite like the taste of a truffle, and even a light dab of truffle oil can take a dish to new heights.

Foie gras, which means "fat liver”, is one of the world's great culinary experiences. The flavor and texture is virtually impossible to describe. Foie gras is rich, buttery, delicate and a popular well-known delicacy in French cuisine. Enjoy this luxury dish with roasted seasonal fruits such as apple, figs, pears and red wine. http://www.enjoyfoiegras.com/info/facts_history_nutrition.html Foie gras is surprisingly low in bad fats and high in good fats. Many studies conducted by well-known and respected authorities have proven foie gras is as healthful as any other meat, although moderation is the key. We know that France consumes the largest portion of the world’s foie gras production; yet, there are fewer cardio-vascular diseases in France than in the USA, and the life expectancy is slightly higher in France
