Fold the truffle shavings into the egg mixture. Season the mixture with salt and white pepper and pour it into the pie crust. Place the pie pan on a baking sheet and bake for 55 minutes at 350 degrees or until the center is set and golden. Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Slice the quiche and place one slice in the center of a plate. Drizzle with truffle oil. Garnish with remaining cheese, parsley, and peppers. This recipe yields 8 slices.
