About the Truffle - The Tuber Magnatum Pico, or Alba White Truffle, is renowned worldwide for its unique aroma and culinary excellence. Its shape ranges from round to irregular, with a pale yellow or ochre exterior and an interior known as “gleba,” which displays a network of white veins with shades from milky to pink to brown. Harvested from late September to late January, Alba White Truffles have a complex, earthy aroma of garlic, hay, honey, mushroom, and spices, offering a truly unforgettable taste experience. The shape of a truffle depends on the soil where it grows. In sandy, soft soil, it will develop a rounder shape, while in denser, rockier soil, it adapts to the stones, roots, and surroundings.Small holes made by insects are essential for spore propagation and the truffle’s regeneration. You may also see marks from the dog’s claws during extraction, or other minor blemishes from fractures as the truffle is unearthed.

The shape and size of the truffle, or the presence of small holes or marks, in no way affect the organoleptic quality of the truffle.

How to Use - Alba White Truffles pair beautifully with simple, delicately flavored dishes. Clean them just before use by rinsing under cold water and brushing gently with a toothbrush.

How to Serve - White Truffles should never be cooked; serve them raw, shaved thinly with a truffle slicer. Their aroma is especially enhanced on eggs but also shines on egg pasta, risotto, cheese fondue, carpaccio, mushroom salads, shellfish, soups, potatoes, and vegetables.

Best Storage Practices - To keep your truffles fresh for 5-7 days, wrap them in a paper towel or absorbent cloth and store in a sealed container in the refrigerator (35-40°F). Change the towel every two days to maintain optimal dryness and flavor.
