Spanish term
Huevas de Trufa
Spanish to English
Other
Cooking / Culinary
item on menu
A cold dish on a "cocktail" menu:
Cucharilla de Patata a la Vainilla con Huevas de Trufa
I only know one meaning for trufa (truffle), so does it mean that they are small pieces of truffle and that "huevas" is used metaphorically? Or am I on the wrong track - does trufa have another (fishy) meaning?

Trout roe
I wonder if this isn't a mistake, since it is indeed a typo on one of the very few documents that contains this term. Have a look:

I thought this sounded familiar--you had a previous question about "Cuchara de patata a la vainilla con huevas de trucha". Might it be for the same client?

Comment: "You're absolutely right, Cindy - well remembered! Yes, it must be a typo as it is exactly the same dish (and the same client) - many thanks! How embarrassing that I didn't remember myself, although I did remember about the "cuchara"!"

I think you are right that it is truffle shaped into the form of eggs.
