Summer truffles, a close cousin of the Burgundy Truffle (Tuber unicinatum), are in season from April to mid-September. Plucked from European markets at the height of their freshness, our truffles are immediately shipped stateside for your enjoyment. 

These beauties are similar in appearance to our black winter truffles, but with a lighter color, crunchier texture and a more delicate, somewhat floral flavor that is best enjoyed raw.  Try them grated over pasta, risotto, eggs or cheese dishes, or use them to finish recipes and sauces where only a short amount of cooking time is required.

Enhance the flavor of simply-seasoned grilled steaks by finishing them with a pat of butter topped with some freshly grated summer truffle.  Shave fresh summer truffles over your favorite cream-sauce base ravioli or risotto. Roast a Whole Rabbit or Chicken, drizzle it with summer truffle sauce and serve with caramelized endives. (Alternatively, serve meat alongside whipped potatoes finished with a sprinkling of truffles …and if you haven’t tried our Truffle Butter and Oils folded into mashed potatoes, you’re missing out!)
