White Truffle Sauce 130g

Special Italian mushroom sauce with white truffle (Tuber magnatum pico) from the forests of Umbria. The sauce contains 1% white truffle. That may not seem much, but the white truffle is powerful and rich in flavour and gives the sauce a balanced and full truffle flavour.

White truffles are the rarest and also the most popular truffle. They owe their great popularity to their complex and delicate taste. Compared to black truffles, the aroma of white truffles is more refined and concentrated. White truffles grow underground and cannot be cultivated by humans. They are collected in the months from October to December by seasoned Italian truffle hunters, who are able to detect this precious delicacy thanks to the good sense of smell of their specially trained truffle dogs. Once the dogs have tracked down a truffle, they are carefully dug out with a so-called 'vanghino' - a small hoe.

This White Truffle Sauce is ideally suited for seasoning pasta dishes. One jar is about enough for a pasta dish for four people. The sauce has a thin structure and is therefore very easy to stir through dishes. Moreover, the sauce is ready-to-use and therefore immediately usable. In addition to pasta dishes, the sauce lends itself very well to seasoning risotto, rice dishes or, for example, as a sauce over potato or a nice piece of red meat.

The sauce can be heated, but preferably not too long and too hot. It is therefore best to add the sauce to a dish at the last moment in order to retain the flavour as well as possible. Buon appetito!
