20 : truffle salt

I love truffles...not the chocolate kind, but the "the fruiting body of an underground mushroom" commonly found by "truffle hogs", aka pigs kind.

So when browsing at UniqueLA's winter show, I couldn't pass up an opportunity to try Hepp's Gourmet White Truffle Salt. One tiny taste and I was in love. It's not as salty as you'd think given that it is in fact flavored salt.

A simple grilled steak finished with a sprinkle of truffle salt equals absolute deliciousness.
