Black And White Truffles Fresh and dried from farm

Truffles are the true fruit of the earth, more rare and precious than any other edible root, tuber or mushroom. There is no other flavor like them on earth, which is perhaps why they are so often described as heavenly.

White truffles are ivory to chestnut in colour and upon inspection should have an aroma that is overwhelmingly pungent, clean, and sweet, springy to the touch but not soft. Any sign of beading or moisture will signify that the truffle is past it's best.

In terms of size and shape, size is good - it is better to have one truffle than two smaller ones of equal weight. Highly prized white truffles are perfectly spherical since lobes and folds can harbour decay. A truffle larger than the size of a hen's egg tends to carry a premium greater than it's worth.

External Appearance
The exterior of White Truffles varies from cream to mustard yellow colour. White Truffles should be firm to the touch, not too hard, but certainly not soft or spongy.

Internal Appearance
When cut in half, White Truffles should demonstrate a clear white marbling on a cream or fawn coloured background.

Aroma and Taste
White Truffles have a powerful, complex, faintly garlicky aroma and an intense flavour.

When past their best; White Truffles will start to go soft and spongy after about a week and the aroma and flavour will start to quickly deteriorate.
