Homemade crisps cooked in a cauldron with 3% Périgord black truffle

Maison Henras has selected black truffles from Périgord in full season, specifically for these chips. They are small but very aromatic and ideal for tolerating the freeze-drying process at room temperature without degradation of their taste.

They come from different partner truffle growers , in Dordogne, Charentes, Quercy blanc and also from the province of Teruel, in Spain.

They underwent a unique, patented, gentle freeze-drying process, then were reduced to powder to be used in our salts, oils, butters and chips. This Périgord truffle powder is a true concentrate of the true flavor of the truffle , very far from the synthetic aromas used by manufacturers.

These chips were made by a Landes potato producer, from his local harvest. The salt used comes from Salies du Béarn and the sunflower oil from the South-West.

The chips are handcrafted and cooked in a cauldron, which gives them a unique crunch.

BLACK TRUFFLE FROM PERIGORD

The Périgord black truffle is a fragile product, very sensitive to heat treatment. It has difficulty withstanding sterilization and without the implementation of real specialist know-how, its taste can be altered. Many manufacturers of “truffle” products have found an easy solution: they swap black truffles for summer truffles (cheaper) and integrate powerful, often caricatured aromas.
