Fresh Frozen Wild Black Truffles

Try our Fresh Frozen Wild Black Truffles today!

IN SEASON NOW! This extremely hard to come by delicacy has a strong musky, earthy aroma that will turn any ordinary meal into a feast fit for royalty. Our black truffles, aka leucangium carthusianum, grow wild in the Great Pacific Northwest and are every bit as delicious and aromatic as those found in Europe. They can be found all the way from BC Canada to Northern California and are often nestled in the needles and top soil around douglas firs. Truffles eaten by themselves may not taste so delightful, but they are so aromatic that just grating a little on top of a finished dish, be it a meaty dish, or a light dessert, will add a whole new flavor dimension that is heavily sought after all over the world. Foraging black truffles is arduous work. Hidden beneath the soil they are hard to see hence hard to find (which is probably why most people have probably never seen them). We have taken all the hard work out of sourcing what has become known as 'black gold', so you can have a taste of this true jewel of the food kingdom from the comfort of your own home. Shipped frozen straight to your door. Upon arrival, immediately place in freezer. Enjoy!

***MUST BE KEPT FROZEN. DO NOT THAW BEFORE USE. BEST WHEN SLICED, SHAVED OR GRATED WHILE STILL FROZEN.***
