What A Grade Slices Means

A Grade describes the physical commercial selection used before processing rather than a guaranteed level of aroma intensity. For this product, selected truffles are processed into approximately 1 mm slices before freezing and packing.

Appearance, Aroma and Texture

Tuber aestivum typically has a dark brown to black exterior and a light brown to hazelnut-brown interior with fine pale marbling. Its aroma is delicate and earthy with woodland notes, while the flavour is mild, earthy and subtly nutty.

Freezing naturally changes the texture of fresh truffle, and the slices may become softer after defrosting. Aroma intensity, interior colour, marbling and slice appearance vary naturally between individual truffles and production batches.

How to Use Frozen Black Summer Truffle Slices

Defrost only the quantity required under refrigeration and use it promptly. The slices can be used with pasta, risotto, eggs, potatoes, sauces, vegetables and meat dishes. Avoid leaving the product at room temperature unnecessarily before preparation.

Frozen Storage

Transfer the unopened package to a freezer immediately after delivery and keep it stored at or below −18°C. Keep the package tightly sealed to limit dehydration and absorption of odours from other frozen foods.

After defrosting, use the required quantity promptly and do not refreeze unless the current product label specifically permits it. Always follow the storage instructions and use-by or best-before date printed on the product label.

Shipping and Protective Packaging

The frozen product is placed in insulated transport packaging with cooling materials appropriate for the destination and expected transit time. Frozen products are supplied only to destinations and delivery routes where suitable transport conditions can be provided.

Delivery availability, courier service and estimated transit time are shown during checkout. Transfer the product to a freezer at or below −18°C immediately after delivery.

Important Product Information

Frozen truffles are natural products. Colour, marbling, aroma, moisture and slice appearance vary naturally between individual truffles and production batches. Commercial grade describes physical selection and does not guarantee aroma intensity.
