What Are Truffles?

Truffles are underground fungi that grow symbiotically with tree roots (oak, hazelnut). Key culinary types: **white truffle** (*Tuber magnatum*, Alba) with pungent, garlicky aroma, and **black truffle** (*Tuber melanosporum*, Périgord) with chocolatey, earthy depth. Others include **summer/burgundy** truffles.

Nutritional Profile

- **Calories:** ~30–45 kcal per 100 g (fresh) - **Macros:** modest protein and fiber, very low fat - **Micronutrients:** small amounts of iron, phosphorus, potassium - **Aromatics:** sulfur compounds and volatiles responsible for signature scent

Culinary Benefits

- **Explosive aroma** elevates simple dishes - **Used raw** (white) or **gently heated** (black) to release fragrance - **Infusion-friendly:** perfumes butter, cream, salt, eggs

Considerations

- **Price & perishability:** best within days of harvest - **Adulteration:** many “truffle oils” use synthetic aroma; check labels - **Allergy/sensitivity** to fungi is possible - Store dry, wrapped in paper, in a ventilated container in the fridge; change paper daily

How to Use

- **Shave** thinly over **risotto, tagliolini, eggs, carpaccio** - **Finish** creamy sauces or potato purée - Make **truffle butter** (soft butter + finely grated truffle + salt) - Pair with **eggs, dairy, potatoes, mushrooms, parmesan**

Summary

Truffles deliver unmatched aroma and umami. Use sparingly, handle gently, and avoid high heat—especially for white truffles.
