Tanooki’s Truffle Fries!
My blogging friend Tanooki has a great story today – because it’s Happy National Food Day!
As she posted earlier:
“Attention to all foodies, today October 16th is the day to celebrate our best friend, FOOD!”
Here is her terrific recipe to celebrate – for Truffle Fries – click to see it here!
Tanooki also decided to do this:
“Have you ever heard of the world’s top 3 delicacies? These include caviar, foie gras, and truffles. Luckily for me, I’ve tried eating foie gras and truffles, but never for caviar (sometimes people refer to salmon roe as caviar, but caviar to me means the black, tiny shark roe.”
Well, they are indeed some incredible ingredients and I’ve cooked with them as well:
Last year, as part of my “52 In 22” cooking challenge, I made a caviar-topped oyster pasta recipe thanks to Chef Emeril Bagasse – don’t make that face, it was delicious!

Bite! Eat! Repeat! 
Yummmmmmmmm!
Tanooki, those fries look sinful! Thanks for sharing John.
I used to eat Fois Gras regularly over 25 years ago, but then it got ‘cancelled’ because of the way the geese are reared and force-fed. It is still available, but harder to find and prohibitively expensive now. I have had Beluga caviar in the Soviet Union, served on warm blinis and accompanied by large glasses of vodka. Truffles have been added to some meals I ate in good quality restaurants in London back in the day,
So I suppose I can claim to have eaten the world’s top three delicacies. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
*Foie Gras* (Typo)
Foie has gone from banned to not over here based on where you are…the Beluga in Russia sounds like an interesting meal!
It was served as an appetiser to a main meal, in a hotel restaurant in Leningrad. I remember it being incredibly cold, and very salty to taste. But the constant refills of the vodka blurred my memory of the rest of the meal. 🙂
