Fresh Black Autumn Truffles, Tuber Uncinatum

About it

What are Black Autumn Truffles? Fresh Autumn Truffles, also known as Tuber Uncinatum, are a prized seasonal variety celebrated for their deeper, more intense flavour compared to Summer Truffles. Popular in European cuisine, they offer a rich, earthy profile with notes of hazelnut, chocolate, and forest floor. Appearance, Aroma and Flavour The exterior is dark brown to black with a rugged, bark-like texture. Inside, the flesh is marbled with white veins running through a coffee-coloured interior. Early in the season, the aroma is subtle, but as autumn progresses, the truffles develop a robust, nutty scent and a full-bodied flavour that enhances both simple and gourmet dishes. How to use Fresh Truffles Autumn Truffles are versatile and elevate a wide range of dishes. Slice thinly over pasta, risotto, or scrambled eggs, or grate into sauces and meat dishes for a luxurious finish. For a simple treat, enjoy them raw on warm bread with extra virgin olive oil and sea salt. For a starter, we recommend approximately 10 grams of Autumn Truffles per person. For a main course, allow around 20 grams per person. How to care for your Fresh Truffles Autumn Truffles are perishable and should be consumed within 5-7 days of delivery.
