A truffle shaver or mandolin is ideal, here. Do not substitute with truffle oil.
Ingredients
1 English cucumber
2 oz goat cheese
1 fresh black truffle
Salt, to taste
Extra-virgin olive oil, to drizzle
1 tsp minced chives, to sprinkle
Directions
Slice a chilled English cucumber into thin disks using a mandolin.
Arrange the cucumber slices on a platter, topping with crumbled goat cheese.
Using the same (cleaned) mandolin or a truffle shaver, cover cucumber in a healthy dusting of truffle slices.
Finish by drizzling olive oil over top and sprinkling with salt and chives.
Serve immediately.
