I got this recipe out of my Cuisine at Home magazine. The picture sold me on trying it. For best results use fresh pasta and Black Truffle Butter. It is worth the splurge...it turned out superb.... Ingredients:

salt & pepper |
1 tablespoon butter, unsalted |
1 tablespoon shallot, minced |

2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce |
1/4 cup half-and-half or 1/4 cup heavy cream |
1 tablespoon parsley, fresh and chopped |
salt & pepper |
4 ounces linguine, fresh if possible |
