Winter Black Italian Truffles
The black truffle is adored for their intense flavor, deeply musky with hints of fresh wine and chocolate flavors. Truffles graded “Extra” are larger than most, the second highest in truffle quality. Best when used at the conclusion of the cooking process, to release all their aroma and perfume. Chefs suggest to slice or shave thinly over pastas, risottos and omelets. Whole -entire truffles- are marked “brushed (which means they have been cleaned of any soil or dirt), preserved in brine or truffle juice -which can be discarded or use to flavor sauced or broths -and are ready to use. Magnificent cooking creations await.

Italian Summer Whole Brushed First Choice White Truffles 2.00 oz.
Product Description
This bianchetti has a captivating aroma with a characteristic hint of garlic. Mild and subtly fresh and aromatic, the summer white truffle delivers a pleasant muted garlicky flavor. Gathered during the summer, when truffles are more plentiful and available, summer white truffles fetch a much more reasonable price the winter variety. Graded “First Choice” – a grading that indicates a smaller size – these winter white truffles have been “brushed” (cleaned of soil) and are preserved in brine, also known as truffle juice, which can be used for other preparations such as sauces and broths. These truffles emanate a delightfully subtle perfume that is conveyed into any dish. Sliver and shave over pasta, meat and poultry dishes, risottos and sauces.

Italian Winter White Truffles
The Italian White Alba truffle – the winter white truffle – is celebrated around the world for its superb gastronomic qualities, particularly its aroma, reminiscent of fresh cloves of garlic mixed with creamy and rich parmesan cheese. The little pebble-sized truffles are preserved in their own juices or brine, and are ready to use. In order to help reconstitute their original flavor and aroma from being preserved in brine, chefs suggest to first lightly sauté them in a truffle butter or oil, and then use at the end of a preparation (like risottos and pastas) to release the full potency flavor and scent as they are served.
