Garlic Sauce with White Truffle Oil

You know this is good because it has two of the best cooking ingredients, garlic and truffle oil. This sauce is a nice compliment to broiled or Sous Vide chicken. It takes a long time to make, so start it at least hour before serving – if you finish early, you can always reheat.
