Black Truffle Slices - Carpaccio
Not only is the delicate fragrance that characterized the black truffle captured in this unique selection, but, when finely sliced, it also meets an aesthetic demand made by haute cuisine, as the unmistakable black color of this valuable tuber makes for a wonderful accent.
Carpaccio truffles by Borgo de Medici are thinly sliced Italian summer truffles immersed in rich sunflower oil. The elegant garnish is packed with a mild, delicate earthy aroma with nuances of porcini mushrooms, garlicky undertones, and a slight chocolate-like aftertaste.
Truffles are the rarest gastronomic pleasure, an ambrosial ingredient, loved and prized for their sophisticated flavor profile. Due to their hypersensitivity to climate, truffles are extremely hard to harvest and are even harder to collect since they grow under the trees. However, Italy is home to nearly nine different varieties of truffles, including fabled White Alba truffles - the most expensive fungi in the world.
