    Truffled Bresaola Salad

    Raw white truffle slices
    1 head frisee lettuce, separated into small curls
    2 oz blanched finely crushed hazelnuts
    1/8 cup white truffle oil
    1/8 cup hazelnut oil
    1/2 cup chanterelle mushrooms, sauteed in a few drops of oil until limp
    1/8 cup balsamic vinegar
    2 oz Bresaola, sliced paper-thin (If not available, use prosciutto.)
    2 oz crushed black walnuts

    Note that either the hard-to-find and expensive Italian White Truffle (tuber magnatum pico) can be used in this salad, or you can use the Oregon White Truffle (tuber gibbosum) to excellent effect on both your palate and your pocketbook.

    Mix balsamic vinegar, hazelnuts and hazelnut oil until blended. Arrange frisee to cover the plate, and pour the hazelnut/balsamic dressing over the greens. Arrange bresaola in slices around the plate, and spoon the mushrooms in a spiral pattern over the lettuce and bresaola. Scatter crushed black walnuts over the mushrooms, and drizzle white truffle oil over the bresaola and the salad. Garnish with white truffle slices, as generously as you like.
