May 2nd is known as National Truffle Day. A day to celebrate this delicious, fragrant mushroom that grows underground near truffle oaks usually found in France. Truffles are considered a delicacy and some versions, like the black truffle, can sell for $900 a pound. Thankfully, a bottle of truffle oil retails for around $20 and can be found in most grocery stores.
Besides making truffle fries, you can use the same recipe to elevate tater tots. Truffle oil is also delicious on pasta, as a vinaigrette in salads, drizzled over popcorn or to dip bread into.
