directions

1. Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add kosher salt and fettuccine.
2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over low heat.
3. Saute mushrooms until tender. Add garlic, chives and parsley to skillet. Saute for one minute, remove from heat.
4. Heat the cream in a small saucepan over low heat.
5. Stir in Truffle Tremor until it is barely dissolved with just a few solid pillows remaining (until you can smell the truffle).

7. When fettuccine is al dente, drain it while reserving 1/4 cup of the hot water. Put fettuccine back in the pot and add the cheese, mushroom and herb mixture.
