“The aroma was incredible, and the flavor lasted 3-4 days. Best truffle we have had in a while!”
Lydia ODonnell
Discover the intense flavor and aroma of our 100% Italian Black Winter truffle (Tuber melanosporum), a culinary treasure beloved by chefs and food enthusiasts worldwide. It grows as deep as two feet underground near oak and hazelnut trees.
Elevate your dishes to gourmet excellence by slicing these exquisite truffles over your favorite recipes. From decadent omelets to classic steak and veggies, and even grated over vanilla ice cream, unleash your creativity and indulge in the unmatched luxury of our black winter truffles.
A classic Black Winter truffle recipe is salsa alla spolentina. Warm oil, garlic, salt, and pepper and then add minced truffles. Ideal for bruschetta, spaghetti, meat, and fish. Avoid cooking for long periods or over excessive heat to preserve their delicate taste.

For the best flavor, serve fresh truffles at room temperature. Remove the quantity you plan to use from the refrigerator at least 15 minutes before serving.
Truffles can be simply shaved using a truffle shaver, microplane®, or mandolin set to the thinnest possible setting, if applicable.
White truffles are exceptionally prized and should never be heated, as heat will degrade their delicate aroma. Black truffles, on the other hand, are more robust and their flavor can be intensified with gentle heat or minimal preparation.
It's natural for truffles to develop a bit of mold. Simply brush it off gently with a soft brush. Avoid washing your truffles.
To maintain the quality of your fresh truffles, follow these steps immediately upon receiving them:
- Wrap: Enclose the truffles in clean, dry paper towels.
- Contain: Place the wrapped truffles in an airtight container.
- Refrigerate: Store in the refrigerator at 34°-36°F.
- Daily Maintenance: Replace the paper towels daily to maintain optimal freshness.
We highly recommend enjoying your truffles within 48 hours of arrival. Please keep in mind that truffles have a very short shelf life.
