Fresh Burgundy Truffle 4 Oz

The Burgundy truffle has a dark rough skin with large, diamond-shaped points, and light coffee-colored flesh veined with white. Burgundy truffles have a delicate, hazelnut-like aroma; they are not robustly flavored like the black winter truffle. Foraged in France and Italy.  (Tuber Uncinatum)

Storing/Serving Tips: Once a fresh truffle is out of the ground, it doesn't keep long. To best preserve your truffle, wrap it in a paper towel, put in an airtight plastic container and set in the refrigerator. Do not clean the truffle until you are ready to use it. 

With a lighter flavor than other truffles, the Burgundy truffle is best enjoyed fresh and grated or shaved over pasta, eggs, mashed potatoes, risotto and other rice dishes. Finish a butter sauce with a few shavings before spooning it over a seared steak or duck breast. The heat from the cooked food is enough to release the mild truffle flavor.
