250mL Black Truffle Oil (purchased from Gourmet Attitude)
1 Bottle (750mL) Gem Clear
truffle scraps (optional)
Add together the Black Truffle Oil and Gem Clear and sous vide for 1 hour at 65C. Let cool and the place bag upright (or hang from a shelf) in a cold space - Freezer is ideal. Once the fats from the oil are solidified, cut a small hole in the bottom of the bag and let the liquid flow out (catch this portion in a container because it is what you want to keep). Take care to only catch the liquid and not the fat cap. Discard the bag and the oil fats and reserve the liquid.
**If you have Black Truffle scraps to spare, you can add some of this to the bag when cooking for more intense flavors.
