Ingredients

How to make it

  • Cook the macaroni according to package directions just until al dente. Rinse under cold running water, drain well and set aside.
  • grate the cheese. Set aside.
  • Chop the scallions (green part only) on the diagonal into ¼-inch wide rounds. Set aside.
  • Finely chop the truffle. Set aside.
  • Position a rack 5-6 inches from the broiler element in the oven; preheat oven on the broil setting.
  • Pour the Madeira into an oven-proof 3-quart saucier (or saucepan). Cooking over medium-high heat, reduce the wine until syrupy.
  • Stir in the cream, two tablespoons of the chopped black truffle, and a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Using a Microplane grater, finely grate about ¼ teaspoon fresh nutmeg directly onto the cream. Cook over medium-high heat (do not boil) stirring occasionally, until mixture is reduced by half and the sauce coats the back of a spoon.
  • Add the cooked macaroni and half of the grated cheese; stir to warm through. Top the mixture with the remaining cheese and place under a broiler just until top is golden brown. Remove and stir in half of the chopped scallions and ½ teaspoon of white truffle oil. Taste mixture and add additional salt, pepper, and truffle oil as desired.
  • Spoon macaroni and cheese onto two serving plates (or bowls) and garnish the top of each serving with additional chopped scallion. Serve immediately.
