Characteristics
Type: White winter truffle
Latin name: Tuber magnatum Pico
Season: October to December
Interior color: Light sandy with white marbling
Use: Served raw, shaved or grated
Origin: Naturally growing truffle
Serving
White winter truffle should be served at room temperature to achieve the best aroma and flavor. Therefore, take it out of the refrigerator well in advance of use.
The truffle should not be cooked. It is used raw and shaved or grated as a finishing touch over warm or hot dishes, where the heat helps release the aroma.
Note
White winter truffle is not a cultivated truffle variety and is only found in the wild. It is typically hunted with specially trained dogs.
Truffles are a natural product, and the weight may vary. We always select truffles that are as close as possible to the ordered weight.
Storage and shelf life
Shelf life is approx. 1–2 weeks with proper storage. Wrap the truffles individually in kitchen paper and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The kitchen paper should be changed approx. every other day.
The truffle may develop a white mold-like layer on the outside. This is called mycelium and is natural. It can be gently removed with a brush or by quickly rinsing the truffle under cold water and drying it immediately afterward.
Weight and transport
Truffles can lose weight during transport as they release moisture. Therefore, they are packed in moisture-absorbing paper so that the moisture does not form condensation.
We calibrate our scales daily and always pack a few grams over the ordered weight to compensate for any potential weight loss.
