Black Périgord truffles (Tuber melanosporum) from Europe are among the rarest of truffle varieties. Each winter, truffle hunters use pigs or dogs to sniff out the wild fungi that grow beneath trees, most famously in France's Périgord region, for which the truffles are named. Our black truffles are harvested in France and are shipped to you fresh and chilled. Characterized by a subtle aroma and an earthy flavor reminiscent of rich chocolate, they add an exquisite quality to a wide variety of dishes. Shave the truffles over pasta and risotto, or use them to enhance classic favorites like scrambled eggs, mac and cheese, and mashed potatoes.
