    Truffle risotto cooking kit!
    Christina L.

    The best virtual cooking class during this difficult time. Something to look forward to every weekend! Please support to help collective goal to sell enough kits to make meals for health care workers. You can directly donate as well. They partner with local vendors to create awesome recipes and easy to follow virtual class for everyone to enjoy. The first class was truffle risotto with fresh truffle. I learned so many great tip and techniques from the chefs. Next class is our favorite Mac and cheese! Please support local businesses and let's help each other out in need. Highly recommend!

    Amazing!! Virtual cooking class with amazing Chef Tucker! They send you the food and booze to your house, and then a live cooking tutorial via zoom and you follow along! Chef interacts and cooks with you also helping everyone along the way! I can not wait to take this class again!

    My company did a cooking class (lasted about 2 hrs) with Truffle Shuffle a few weeks ago and it was very entertaining! First, the company was started by alumni chefs from The French Laundry.... so, they basically know what they're doing, duh. There were probably close to 100 of us on the Zoom class, which couldn't have been an easy task for Truffle Shuffle to manage us all! However, Chef Jason was extremely engaging and kept us entertained/orderly through the class. Cooking instructions were straight forward. Any questions from us we'd type in the group chat and Chef Jason would answer for us shortly thereafter. - we made truffle risotto - an alcoholic drink (non-alcoholic drink options were also available) We received a box with all cooking ingredients prior to the class. I was very impressed by the quality of ingredients that were sent... including the packaging! I've taken a few cooking classes and this was by far the most "up-scale" in terms of ingredients. Highly recommend! BTW- their truffle + white cheddar popcorn is TO DIE FOR!!!!! Literally, best popcorn i've ever had. EVER.

    Taste: 5 (I made it!) Value: 4.5 Service: helpful, entertaining, enthusiastic A worthwhile first ZOOM cooking class experience in quarantine. I am so glad I found out about this group and was able to participate in this epic Truffle Mac and Cheese class. Both chefs who were in charge of the days class are French Laundry alum - to me this meant that their skills, advice, and overall flavor profile in the dish would be outstanding. To my surprise, I also found that they were entertaining with good humor, interactive audience participation, and overall encouragement. The whole process from ordering, delivery, to day of cooking experience was seamless. One of our plastic containers holding some flour was slightly damaged in transit, but I don't blame the company for this - it happens. The quality of local ingredients was impeccable from the pasta to the cheeses. The class was easy to follow (though maybe a little fast for my pace), and the outcome was a delicious entree that I almost didn't want to share with my sous chef - he deserved some though. So cheesy, al dente, and filled with truffle flavor. Will need to try their place when we can!

    Truffle Shuffle did a zoom cooking class for my work holiday party and it was great!! I would completely recommend them. The food was delicious, and they did a great job helping people (of various cooking levels) through the process while also keeping it very fun and engaging. We made ricotta gnocchi with truffle sauce and it was amazing. They sent all the ingredients in a box that arrived the day before.

    As a engagement present, one of my good friends wanted to invite me & my fiancé to a very special dinner riddle with truffles, my all-time favorite fungus. Driving up to the industrial area of Oakland, we didn't know what to expect from this experience. We rushed ourselves into the gates and found the most quaint two-story house containing a beautiful live edge wood table that perfectly fit 12. We were quickly greeted by Sarah as she help us unload our 4 bottles of wine - it was BYOB and we got ambitious... After which point we got introduced to our infamous French Laundry alums - Tyler & John - along with small bites to start our night. We spent some time taking pictures and taking in all the wonderful products being offered for purchase. Popping off the night with the champagne offered- we were excited to eat! The menu is ever rotating based on the freshest ingredients. Our meal started with a truffle deviled egg taste, but the multi- course meal was way more impressive: - Black Truffle and Artichoke Soup - Green Gulch Farm Salad (with the most delicious goat cheese) - English Pea Risotto - Roasted Duck Breast I can't explain how delicious it was. I wanted to pick up my plate and lick it clean! All the while the stories, conversations, & wine kept pouring. The night was needed with the last of our wine, a Young Coconut Sorbet, & multiple purchases of their truffle products. I would highly recommend this experience and can't wait to find an opportunity to do it again.

    In the industrial part of Oakland, had the pleasure of joining a private dinner at Truffle Shuffle with French Laundry alums Tyler Vorce and John McKinney manning the kitchen (and his lovely wife Sarah tending the tables). The dinner is in a home that serves as their headquarters as well. Seating for 12. BYOB. Seasonal menu makes the meal unique as are the other truffle enthusiasts joining the meal. *~MENU 6/2/2019~* Asparagus Salad: beech mushrooms, walnuts, truffle vinaigrette English Pea Raviolo: summer truffle confit, Parmesan mousse Roasted Chicken Breast: fresh bean ragout, radishes, black truffle sauce Blackberry Ice Cream: served on a bed of Rainier cherries, topped w/ pistachios and mint Upon passing through the iron gates, we could smell the truffles wafting towards us. Entering the establishment, we were greeted with a glass of champagne and a profiterole topped w/ shaved Parmesan nestled on a dollop of truffle aioli. Typically the meal doesn't include a wine paring but since several close friends of the chefs were joining, they were kind enough to provide some for the rest of the diners throughout the meal. It was fun mingling with the other dining guests while we waited. A dinner bell rang to signify the start of the meal. When seated, a mini eggs Benedict was placed in front of us as a nice surprise off-the-menu treat as they went over a little about themselves and the story of their journey thus far into this venture. Soon after, the rest of the meal began. Everything was amazing, but everyone's favorite was definitely the raviolo, the egg was inside was done perfectly and the yolk oozing into the Parmesan mousse was just exquisite. Would highly recommend going and sign up for their email list for updates. I'm looking forward to their salt releasing in July where they are sourcing salt from Bali made in the traditional way (trees and sand).

And after gazing at their product listing one day, I can kinda tell that they probably service a lot of ethnic shops like taquerias and small brick n mortars. You actually don't see or interact with any of their products directly. Upon opening their public door, there's a small office with a window. There's a current product sheet there with current pricing. You have to go by this and not with what you got in the past, or internet postings, as this sheet will be their current inventory and pricing. And pricing these days can vary greatly from week to week as well as supply. There's also a hanging bulletin board that has a lot of weekly specials. Once you've found something, you just place the order with the nice receptionist. She'll draw up a receipt and take your payment. CASH ONLY (for some reason). You then have to go outside where your car is and wait for a warehouse employee to bring it out to you. They are quick, like I've never had to wait more than 3 minutes. I've tried this place like 3 times now since I work nearby and just hit this up on my way home. Here are some finds: *In a very industrial zone of San Leandro. Close to the Costco but much deeper in industrial streets. Can't see it from a main road. Gotta go under an overpass then parallel a railroad track. Now that I know where it is at, it's a breeze. But first time looking it was a bit of a challenge. *All meats I've gotten thus far are frozen solid. But nicely frozen where you won't have to break anything separating things. Lots of things are well sealed in tight cryovac. So will have to spend time defrosting goods, can't go home and start cooking. But I just put whatever I'm planning on cooking in the fridge for a good day and just cook it the next day or so. And in what meats I've gotten even though frozen at one point is still of really good quality once defrosted. *Beef seems somewhat 'Choice grade' but I haven't seen any labeling to say so. Steaks I've tried are meatier and chewier than most grocery stores in my area, but in a good way. Feels more natural and not as 'water-y'. I've only tried 1 lb Rib Eye Steaks and thin cut NY strips so far, and have been more than pleased. Also tried some lamb shoulder chops and they too made for good dishes. *Pricing less than retail grocery stores unless there is mass grocery sale. Competive with Costco beef pricing but here you'll have to defrost something slowly. But you won't have to go through the Costco grind of getting aggravated in the parking lot, weaving through hundreds of people and waiting in life-sucking lines. I mean I'll still go to Costco, but if I can go to Costco less, then I've just freed up a big part of my personal time. *If I'm ever gonna feed a big group, big bbq, holiday party, big potluck etc., this will be a legit option. You can get cases of stuff here, whole ribeyes and briskets, cases of chicken/pork/lamb. They even have bacon, sausage and common cheeses on wholesale. And a big draw here is they have a ton of ethnic meats, which is why I'm sure they deal with a lot ethnic mom n pops. Tripe, suadero, beef cheeks, pork necks, livers all here. Probably won't find that stuff at Costco. *Warehouse hours, open like super early like 6-7 am and close by noon. Works for my hours but not for many others. Good fit for me, so they'll become a resource for me.

    I like it Raw This…read morestuff will make you primal - minus the meat. Coconut oil, Butter, nut-Butter Butter-raw nut nut nut - nutz for raw nut butter and coconut! Raw, organic, local nut butters and coconut oil - divine crushed fruits and seeds! Fantastic if you are raw food'n it, or eating for energy. THE SHORT: Cost is worth it! It's not cheap but it's reasonably priced for the quality. I keep a stock of their (1) raw cashew butter (2) raw almond butter (3) raw macadamia nut butter (4) raw coconut oil (5) and occasionally the raw pecan butter. My only issue is that you really have to use them because they don't keep beyond the date. They also makes products that haven't tried, but I'm devoted to the following: THE LONG -COCONUT OIL You will NEVER find a better virgin coconut oil in a jar - I dare you to challenge me. Ok Living Tree Foods Community and Berkeley Bowl are fabulous alternates, but I am totally hooked on THIS! I'm not an expert, but raw coconut oil is part of my daily routine. I eat at least 2 tbs every day - mostly straight up - this stuff is amazing! I never get tired of this scent either, because it's fresh and gentle tasting. Awesome as a supplement. Other suggested uses: -makeup remover - way gentle on the eyes and has anti microbial properties -body moisturizer - smooth quick dry skin solution and pretty cost efficient since a little goes a long way. Goes on faster than lotion, absorbs quick, makes skin smoother, and smells amazing. -pre-shampoo hair mask therapy - I'm a fan of using chemical free high heat styling and I swear this stuff is keeping me from balding. -post waxing RAW CASHEW BUTTER - Super creamy and makes an excellent secret ingredient for thickening. I add a tbs or two to my post-cardio smoothies in place of dairy - super yummy. Also great to enhance creamy soups; or, incorporate in your favorite dessert! Vanilla cupcakes with raw cashew butter and lavender frosting! This is one of those things you can really get sick with anyway you please ie butter a s'more, or make Ani Phyo's Lucuma vegan ice cream into an Epic Mealtime Sundae. It's blended extremely well making it an awesome alternative for cream - because it's not roasted the flavor is mild -- way creamy dreamy. RAW ALMOND BUTTER Less decadent than the other butters but great on crackers, and also delicious in smoothies. I don't buy milk, but like to blend this with water and banana when I run out of almond and rice milk - works good enough for me. RAW MACADAMIA NUT BUTTER Sin sin sinfully fatty - like the best nut oil on the planet just floats to the top - be careful cause it can get messy. It's expensive but absolutely amazing. Drizzle a little on a plate before serving a delicate dessert or smear on a plain cracker with a drop of agave - bang'n. WHERE CAN YOU COP IT? Website Berkeley Bowl (obviously Berkeley - but both bowls) Whole Foods (SF, East Bay, Marin) Healthy Hut (Kaua'i) Possibly Rainbow (SF) Note: If you have nut allergies, I don't think this place isolates their machinery. Also, I am so serious about that coconut oil - don't try it unless you're prepared to retire your old stuff.
