Fresh Black Truffle — Tuber Melanosporum
The Périgord black truffle. Tuber melanosporum is harvested from December through March — its dark, marbled flesh carries an intense, complex aroma of earth, cocoa, and forest undergrowth. One of the most recognized luxury ingredients in European gastronomy.
Shave or slice over pasta, risotto, scrambled eggs, foie gras, and aged cheeses. For year-round black truffle access, explore the Black Truffle Oil or Tartufata Sauce. Compare with the more delicate White Truffle Tuber Magnatum Pico or the more accessible Summer Truffle Tuber Aestivum.
Why Tuber Melanosporum
Tuber melanosporum tolerates gentle heat better than white truffle, making it more versatile across cooking applications. It can be incorporated into sauces, butter, and egg dishes without immediate aroma loss. Its bold, structured profile makes it the preferred truffle for rich, fat-based preparations.
Usage
Can be used raw or gently heated. When cooking, add near the end of preparation. Clean with a soft brush under cold water just before use. Store wrapped in paper, refrigerated, and use within 7–10 days of receipt.
