Winter Truffle

Winter truffles are a highly sought-after delicacy among culinary enthusiasts. They are a type of fungus that grows underground in the winter months and possess a distinct earthy flavor and musky aroma. The outer skin of winter truffles is black or dark brown while the interior is black or grey. The flesh is firm and dense with a marbled appearance of veining. They have a strong and pungent aroma that is often described as having hints of hazelnut, earth, and musk. These characteristics make winter truffles ideal for a variety of dishes, including soups, pasta dishes, risottos, and sauces.
