Fresh Italian White Truffle

White Truffle, or better known White Alba Truffle, is surely the most precious variety of truffle from a economic and culinary point of view. Its gleba is unmistakably white and yellowish with small white veins. The surface is smooth, ochre or olive-yellow, sometimes also grey-blackish. They have a strong smell of fresh cut grass and hearthy aroma.

Cooking Tips: White truffles are prized for their distinct aroma and intense, earthy flavor. They are only served fresh: sliced, shaved or grated over a finished dish such as pasta, risotto, vegetables, or eggs. The heat of the cooked dish is just enough to release the aroma of the truffles, enhancing their natural pungency.
