Discovery Pack — Fresh truffles & truffle slicer

Your first experience of fresh truffles.

The truffles, the tool and Xavier’s advice: everything you need to discover the pleasure of preparing and serving truffles at home.

Your Discovery Pack

• 60 g of fresh Tuber uncinatum truffles, also known as Burgundy or autumn truffles.
• A stainless steel truffle slicer for shaving thin slices just before serving.

Truffle origin: Switzerland or Italy, depending on availability.

A pack for two: 60 g of truffles in total, around 30 g per person for a generous main course. The number and size of truffles vary with the harvest.

Xavier’s tip

The day before, grate 25 g of truffle into 100 g of butter and mix with a fork. Leave to infuse in the fridge for 12 to 24 hours.

The next day, add the butter to your pasta or risotto off the heat, adjusting the amount to your recipe. Keep the remaining fresh truffle for shaving or grating over each plate just before serving.

Let the flavour develop cold; avoid frying the truffle or boiling a sauce that contains it.

Explore our recipes and basic preparations

For Uncinatum: around 20 g per person for one dish, or about 30 g for a truffle menu with several courses. Adjust to your recipe and appetite.

To develop truffle flavour in butter, cream, mayonnaise or cream cheese, leave the mixture in a covered container in the fridge for 12 to 24 hours. Within this time frame, a longer infusion allows more truffle flavour to develop in your chosen fat.

For 100 g of butter: 5 to 10 g of white Alba truffle (Tuber magnatum) or 10 to 15 g of black Périgord truffle (Tuber melanosporum). These are Xavier’s infusion tips; adapt the quantity to your preparation and the intensity you prefer.

Freshness and storage

Enjoy your truffles as soon as possible after delivery. They generally keep for 5 to 7 days in the fridge, depending on ripeness and condition. Wrap them individually in absorbent kitchen paper, replace it daily and check their condition.
