What Is Black Truffle Carpaccio?

Black truffle carpaccio consists of thinly sliced truffles preserved in oil, allowing you to enjoy their distinctive flavour in a convenient, ready-to-use format.

Our carpaccio is prepared using Black Summer Truffles, which are prized for their earthy, subtly nutty character and versatility in cooking.

Unlike fresh truffles, which have a relatively short shelf life, preserved truffle slices offer greater convenience and flexibility.

Moreover, their thinly sliced format makes them particularly suitable for garnishing finished dishes, incorporating into sauces or adding flavour to warm ingredients.

Why Choose Our Sliced Black Truffle Carpaccio?

Made with Real Black Summer Truffles

Our black truffle carpaccio contains genuine Black Summer Truffles rather than relying solely on truffle-flavoured ingredients.

As a result, you can enjoy both the distinctive flavour and attractive appearance of real truffle slices.

Preserved in Olive Oil

The truffle slices are preserved in olive oil, which provides a convenient way to store and serve them.

Additionally, the surrounding oil can be incorporated into suitable dishes, allowing you to make the most of the contents of each jar.

Ready to Use

There’s no need to clean, shave or prepare the truffles yourself.

Simply open the jar and add a few slices to your favourite dishes. Consequently, it’s easy to introduce a gourmet finishing touch, even when time is limited.

Versatile for Everyday Cooking

From creamy pasta to grilled meats and delicate egg dishes, sliced black truffles complement a wide variety of savoury ingredients.

Their convenient format also makes them suitable for experimenting with new recipes.

How to Use Sliced Black Truffle Carpaccio

One of the greatest advantages of black truffle carpaccio is its culinary versatility.

Here are some of our favourite serving suggestions:

• Pasta: Add truffle slices to freshly cooked tagliatelle, linguine or ravioli with butter and Parmesan.
• Risotto: Arrange a few slices over creamy mushroom or Parmesan risotto immediately before serving.
• Steak: Garnish grilled beef or fillet steak with black truffle slices for an elegant finishing touch.
• Eggs: Add to scrambled eggs, omelettes or poached eggs to enhance their savoury flavour.
• Bruschetta: Layer over toasted sourdough with mushrooms, soft cheese or a little olive oil.
• Pizza: Add a few slices after baking, particularly to mushroom or white pizzas.
• Creamy sauces: Fold chopped truffle slices into warm cream or butter-based sauces.
• Cheese: Place slices between layers of Brie or another soft cow’s milk cheese to create a truffle-infused cheese.

How to Get the Best Flavour from Black Truffle Slices

Although preserved truffles are convenient to use, a few simple techniques can help you make the most of their flavour.

Add Towards the End of Cooking

For the best results, add your black truffle carpaccio towards the end of cooking or immediately before serving.

This helps preserve its aroma and ensures the delicate slices remain visible in the finished dish.

Pair with Complementary Ingredients

Black truffles work particularly well with ingredients that allow their earthy character to shine.

Butter, cream, eggs, potatoes, mushrooms and mild cheeses are especially suitable companions.

Therefore, simple recipes often provide the best opportunity to appreciate their distinctive flavour.

Use the Preserving Oil

The olive oil surrounding the truffle slices can also be used in cooking.

For example, add a little to pasta, risotto or a warm sauce to incorporate more of the jar’s flavour into your dish.

Make Your Own Truffled Brie

For a particularly indulgent serving idea, try making your own truffled Brie.

Carefully slice a wheel of Brie horizontally to create two layers. Next, arrange a selection of black truffle carpaccio slices over the exposed cheese.

Replace the top half, wrap the cheese appropriately and refrigerate it to allow the flavours to develop.

Serve with crusty bread or crackers for a delicious addition to a cheeseboard.
