Fresh Alba White Winter Truffles

SKU: TRUFWW-1 ISBN: 713336010208
Regular price $300.00

Often called the “diamonds of the culinary world,” truffles are prized for their intoxicating aroma and unparalleled flavor. But Fresh White Winter Truffles (Tuber Magnatum Pico) are in a league of their own. If black truffles are the diamonds, then white truffles are the pink diamonds; rarer, more exquisite, and infinitely more coveted.

These elusive gems are foraged only once a year, during a short harvest season that spans September to January in the Northern Hemisphere and June to August in the Southern Hemisphere. Their scarcity, combined with their delicate nature, makes them one of the most sought-after ingredients on Earth.

Fresh white truffles are rarely available in the U.S. in their raw, unpreserved form, making this offering truly exceptional. Their flavor is earthy, garlicky, and unforgettable, and they are best enjoyed shaved paper-thin over warm dishes like risotto, eggs, or pasta to release their intoxicating aroma.

Due to their high demand and extremely limited supply, these fresh truffles are a fleeting treasure for chefs and home gourmands alike. Whether you're preparing a lavish holiday feast or indulging in a once-a-year culinary experience, now is the time to savor the rarest of truffles before the season slips away.

Quantities are limited. Once they're gone, they're gone!

I think they were just at the end of the season.

I hate to give a bad review, but these were not fragrant and just not great. I think it is because they were at the end of the season. May try again next year. Thank you

The day the truffles arrive we used them and they were very good. The next day they deteriorated quite a bit. You must use them as. Soon as they arrive

Truffles, White and Just Right

Every now and then we splurge on truffles, sometimes black and this time white. They arrived almost immediately, the next day, in perfect condition — and at a competitive price (relatively speaking). Yes they were consumed within three days on homemade pasta, risotto, and the best Sunday morning scrambled eggs in the world.
