The Burgundy truffle is an autumnal treasure, often considered the autumn counterpart of the summer truffle. It is prized for its fuller, rounder flavor and stronger aroma compared to the summer variety, offering a sophisticated, earthy complexity that enhances a wide range of dishes.

Harvested mainly from September to December, the Burgundy truffle develops in cool, moist forest soils, where it matures slowly, absorbing the subtle flavors of its environment. Its aroma is rich and layered, with notes of roasted hazelnut, wild mushrooms, and sweet, earthy undertones, making it a versatile ingredient for autumn-inspired cuisine. The flesh is marbled and firm, with a fragrance that intensifies when shaved fresh over hot dishes.

How to use Burgundy truffles:

  • Burgundy truffles are best enjoyed fresh and raw, shaved or grated over dishes just before serving, to preserve their aroma.
  • They can also be lightly incorporated into warm sauces, but should not be subjected to prolonged high heat, which can diminish their fragrance.
  • Ideal pairings include risottos, creamy pasta sauces, roasted meats, root vegetables, and eggs, where their earthy richness complements and enhances the dish.

Storing Truffles:

Do not wash truffles before storage—leave a little soil on them to help preserve freshness. Wrap each truffle individually in a clean paper towel and place them in a sealed container or jar in the refrigerator. Replace the paper towel daily. Just before serving, rinse the truffles under cold water and gently brush away any remaining soil. Pat them dry with a kitchen cloth or paper towel, and they’re ready to enjoy. For optimal flavor, consume within 7 to 9 days of delivery.

Fast Delivery:

Your truffles will arrive at your door within 24–48 hours of ordering. They are carefully packed in specially designed packaging to maintain optimal freshness and protect their delicate aroma and texture during transit, ensuring you receive them in perfect condition.
