PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

When the sunny days arrive, summer truffles are the ally that will enhance your dishes. With its light flesh, its crunchy texture, its light and subtle flavor with hints of hazelnut, it will enhance each of your summer preparations. Maison Henras is committed to offering you the best wines.

USING ADVICE

The summer truffle has a delicate fragrance and features notes of hazelnut and turnip, a singular woody flavor resulting from a mixture of mushroom, cooked corn and warm, humid earth.
It is eaten exclusively raw. Added at the last moment, grated or cut into strips, it goes wonderfully with poultry in cream sauce or delicious white fish. It also awakens the textures of salads in summer. We recommend 15 to 20 grams of fresh summer truffle per person

Food and wine pairing: Ideally served with an excellent white wine such as Pouilly fumé.

CONSERVATION ADVICE

Available in season, our fresh summer truffles are packaged in vacuum bags and shipped by express transport.
Upon receipt, we recommend opening the bag, drying the truffles and storing them in an airtight box, in a cool place, accompanied by an absorbent paper to be changed every day.
A fresh summer truffle will keep for about 10 days.
