Price range: 26,00 € through 500,00 €

Bianchetto Truffle (Tuber Borchii) is also known as the Spring White Truffle, is a flavorful and aromatic truffle that grows primarily from January to March, although in some regions its season can start as early as late winter. It is less rare and more affordable than the famous white truffle (Tuber magnatum pico), but it still offers a delicate yet distinct aroma and a pleasant garlicky, slightly spicy flavor. Its flesh is pale cream to light brown, with fine marbling and a firm texture. Its aroma is milder than the white truffle, with a strong sense of garlic, and light earthy tones, making it ideal for dishes where a gentle truffle presence is desired.

How to use Bianchetto truffles:

  • Bianchetto truffles are best shaved or grated raw or slightly warmed over dishes just before serving to preserve their aroma.
  • They can complement pasta, risotto, eggs, potatoes, and light sauces, adding a gentle truffle flavor without overpowering the dish.
  • While they can tolerate brief warming in a sauce, prolonged cooking or high heat should be avoided, as this can diminish their fragrance.

The Bianchetto truffle is an accessible and versatile truffle, offering a milder alternative to the white truffle while still bringing aromatic complexity and elegance to a wide variety of dishes.

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.
