Fresh Black Autumn Truffle (tuber uncinatum Chatin) is also called Winter Scorzone, due to its similarity to the summer truffle, but only low temperatures allow this truffle to mature.
It has a pleasant and distinct aroma reminiscent of Porcino, Hazelnut and Grana.
The gleba (inner flesh) is hazelnut to dark brown with light branching veins.
The peridium (outer rind) is warty black with poorly developed warts.
It is recommended to wash the Truffle only when 'necessary. Using a medium/hard bristle brush, wash it under a trickle of cold water. Dry it well with paper towels before use.
Winter Scorzone holds up to high temperatures although it is definitely recommended not to sauté or brown it.
Use it to make a sauce that you will use to season croutons, eggs and whatnot.
Grattugiate l’uncinato abbastanza finemente aggiungendo Olio Extra Vergine di Oliva, aglio e sale q.b.
To garnish your dish you can add a few slices of truffle using the truffle cutter.

I am now on my third purchase in the year, and I must confess that I love great food.
In July my first purchase , and despite the summer Black I received excellent service both on shipping and in the almost exaggerated packaging for the storage of truffles.
In October second purchase Black Autumn, WONDERFUL for scent texture exceptional and last but not least despite purchased 1l 12-10-20 last night 27-10-20 I finished the last 100 gr. and they were quarry stones still very fragrant.
These days I will purchase the white for the first time and I will let you know, if it also works with the white you will be from GHINNES. Thank you

Although I was guaranteed fresh product when it arrived I was a little disappointed. It wasn't as good as I would have expected. But then when I went to cook it the next day and while eating it I definitely changed my mind. Thank you
