Resistant to domestication, wild and free, the truffle has been a culinary delicacy for so long, the Ancient Romans were wondering where it came from and what it was. (Plutarch thought warmth and water in the soil, along with the occasional bolt of lightning, created truffles.) Truffles aren't the only delicate item here; tender sweet scallops bring whimsy with truffle's wild. The magic we captured in this meal is akin to lightning in a bottle: rare, electric, and will make your hair stand on end. (Not so much that last part.)
