On: There Are No Truffles in Truffle Oil (2014)

Now leave that bottle on a shelf for a week, and see if the original bears any resemblance.

It won't.

This isn't controversial, it's basic chemistry. The aromatics in truffles (excluding 2,4-dithiapentane) are water-soluble, not fat-soluble. Applying heat to your truffles-in-olive-oil mixture is not going to change this simple fact.

Source, please. What you say goes against what I personally sniffed at my friend's house, which was the home-made truffle oil as per above.
