FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions.
What are Truffles?
Truffles are underground fungi known for their intense and unique aroma and flavor. They grow underground, often in symbiosis with trees like oak, hazelnut, and hornbeam. They are highly valued in gastronomy and considered one of the world’s most luxurious delicacies.
What is the Difference between White and Black Truffles?
The white truffle (Tuber Magnatum Pico) is considered the most prized due to its strong aroma and rarity. It is best consumed raw, grated over a fresh dish. Black truffles (such as Tuber Melanosporum and Tuber Aestivum) have a somewhat milder aroma but are versatile and used both fresh and cooked.
