Truffle butter is a compound butter made with butter combined with other ingredients, including truffles or synthetic truffle flavorings such as 2,4-dithiapentane. It is a culinary ingredient that has an extremely rich, mushroomy taste that is bursting with savory, umami notes. It is frequently used to top steak, but can be used in a variety of dishes. However, it is important to note that the term "truffle butter" has also been used as a sexual slang term for the secretions left on a woman after anal then vaginal sex. It is important to distinguish between the culinary and sexual meanings of the term.
