Truffled Parmesan Galettes

Another little truffle trick for canapes is to pimp a parmesan crisp (or galette).

I have a bit of an umami obsession, and last time I made them I had that 'taste' very much in mind...

Ordinarily these crisps are made using ground parmesan, sprinkled onto a baking sheet, and baked in the oven for 5 mins or so until golden.  

These really are yummy, but in a little culinary epiphany, as the crisps were cooling I brushed them with a tiny quantity of good truffle oil.  The scent and taste operated almost at a subliminal level - do try them!
