Summer Black Truffle
Tuber Aestivum Vitt. or Scorzone Truffle 

 

Harvested from June to August, it has a sweet, earthy scent, with a pleasant flavor. We suggest a quick heating in olive oil with a clove of garlic. It is very good with fish, meat baked in foil, or in stuffing. When you preserve it in the freezer with butter or olive oil, the Scorzone scent concentrates, producing an aromatic sauce that can be used to create extraordinary dishes.

Our truffles are delivered within 24/48 hours in Europe, 72 hours for the USA

How to Preserve Black Truffles  
Wrap each truffle separately in absorbent paper and store them in a closed jar. Change the paper when it becomes damp. Keep fresh truffles in the refrigerator in the vegetable tray (at 2°-3° centigrade, 35°-37° fahrenheit). The truffles will remain fresh for a maximum of 4 to 6 days. When you are ready to use them, wash them carefully with water and a nailbrush, and dry them with paper.
Preservation for a longer time: 
-Whole truffles: freeze truffles after having cleaned and dried them.  When you want to use them, slice them  very quickly before they are completely defrosted.
-Sliced truffles: see cooking instructions below and then freeze the truffle. You can store it up to 2 years in the deepfreezer.
Cooking instructions: slice the cleaned truffle. Put the slices into a frying pan with a little olive oil, a clove of garlic, and a pinch of salt. Warm for about 1min.
