Fresh Winter Black Truffles (Périgord)

Fresh Périgord black truffles (Tuber melanosporum) are the pinnacle of winter luxury, revered for their intense aroma and complex, earthy flavor. Harvested at peak ripeness during the cold months, these prized fungi lend deep, musky richness to everything from pasta and risotto to eggs and roasted meats. Shaved thin or infused into oils and butters, they embody the essence of fine European gastronomy.
