Winter White Italian Truffles - Brushed

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).

Preserved truffles are a nice, budget-friendly way to add visual truffle appeal to dishes. However, if you are looking to add the pungent aroma and taste of truffles to your dish, we recommend that you explore our fresh truffle selection at http://www.gourmetfoodstore.com. Jarred or canned truffles, sold by us or any other vendor, are mere shadows of their fresh truffle selves and will not, by themselves, deliver the aroma or flavor of fresh truffles. They are great to use with truffle oil – the oil will add the flavor, the preserved truffles the truffle “look”, but preserved truffles should be used only to garnish a dish, or in conjunction to truffle butter and oil during those times when fresh truffles are out of season or when the budget doesn’t allow for the real thing. Preserved truffles out of the jar or can have almost no flavor or odor. If you are looking for the true flavor of a fresh truffle, then please visit our fresh truffle page and purchase a fresh truffle - we carry the markets best selection of fresh truffles while they are available at unbeatable prices. If you’re looking to add a truffle appearance to your dish, then this is the product for you, as the excellent texture, rigidity and wholeness of our preserved truffles will give any dish a truffle look.

As a guy that has been eating tartufi bianchi for almost 40 years , include having family with truffle dogs I am 100% disappointed. I don't want to make a false statement so in absence of a chemical analysis, I will just say that I could not find any resemblance to white truffles, color, aspect, consistency and after slicing them I found no resemblance to white truffles. I can assure you that there is no smell, aroma or consistency similar to tartufi bianchi, they would not pass the -look test- so forget about using them for decoration. Sorry. Live and learn I guess.
