Chef’s Taste - whole truffle
While not offering the same nuanced experience as fresh truffles, our preserved whole black truffles are meticulously selected and jarred at peak ripeness, providing a convenient alternative when fresh truffles are out of season or unavailable. Carefully preserved to retain their distinctive earthy texture and flavour, they are most often used by chefs as a visually appealing garnish or to introduce an interesting textural element to a wide range of dishes, frequently in conjunction with truffle oil or cream.
How to Use:
-
Enhance Dishes: Thinly slice or finely chop and add to pasta, risotto, eggs, or meats for a gourmet touch.
