Fresh white truffles Tuber Borchii Extra-grade

Taste Luxury with Fresh White Truffles Tuber Borchii Extra-Grade!”

The Bianchetti truffle, or tuber borchii, Italian spring white truffle, Tuscany white truffle, may not be as renowned as its better-known cousin, the White Alba Truffle, but it offers a similar flavor. This flavor is hard to explain to those who haven’t tasted an Italian white truffle, but it is often referred to as having an earthy, garlicky, and/or cheesy taste.

Due to the supply of wild truffles being limited, Bianchetti truffles are available at a much more affordable price compared to its better-known counterparts. This is a great advantage for truffle lovers. Furthermore, Bianchetti truffle season usually follows the end of white Alba season, so those who have missed out on Albas can still enjoy Bianchettis!

Bianchetti truffles tend to be much smaller than the white Albas, usually reaching around 15 grams in weight (close to the size of quail eggs). They are distinct from Albas due to their darker outer skins, generally brown to dark orange, and therefore are referred to as “whitish truffles.”

Bianchetti truffles stand out in the wild truffle landscape for their distinctive range of colors: from brown to orange, tan, black, and any hue in-between. Due to this diversity in color, it is not an accurate measure of freshness. Instead, check for a solid texture and a strong truffle scent.

For determining the amount of ounces of fresh European truffles to purchase, we generally suggest a portion of 5-7 grams of fresh truffle per dish per person (which is around 4-5 servings per ounce).
