fluffhead77 Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Was at the cheese store in St. Lawrence market the other week and the guy behind the counter recognized my constant and undying commitment to flavour. He recommended a little truffle oil on mypopcorn for the above average foodie style movie time snack. Haven't picked any up yet, but wondered if anyone here had tried it?

AD Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 It's super expensive for the real stuff, but I've had good luck with this pseudo-truffle oil I found at the grocery. It's "Truffles and Porcini Mushroom Infused Oil" and it's delicious. Definitely not the same as real truffle oil but usually good enough if you're not willing to spend the big bucks.

Asparagus Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 I still haven't found the truffle cheese. i'll look harder this weekend.The international cheese shop in the market has a truffle brie. I haven't found one fitting the description of the sheep milk cheese though. I remember seeing it last spring at the Nicastro's in the market so perhaps it's seasonal.
