The White Truffle is one of the world’s most precious and luxurious ingredients. It is incredibly rare, has a very short season, and is found mainly in the Piedmont region of northwest Italy, most famously around Alba, where the world-famous white truffle market is held.
And because they are so rare, the price of white truffle changes every day, a little like the stock market! We buy directly from the truffle hunters, so the price is determined by what they find and what is available that day — something completely beyond our control. What we can promise is that we always source and supply the best white truffles available on the market.
The taste and aroma are almost impossible to describe. Earthy, delicate, intense and completely unforgettable. Once you try a real white truffle, you’ll recognise that unmistakable aroma in a restaurant anywhere — and you’ll always want it again!
White truffles are usually shaved extremely thin over simple dishes like fresh pasta, risotto or eggs. They are not cooked; the gentle heat from the food is enough to release their incredible flavour and amplify the aroma.
Season: September to December
