Fresh Summer Truffle (Tuber aestivum / uncinatum)

The Summer truffle is a versatile and aromatic delicacy, prized for its subtle, nutty flavor and gentle earthy aroma. Often harvested from late spring through early autumn, this truffle offers a more delicate taste compared to the intense Périgord black truffle, making it perfect for enhancing both everyday and gourmet dishes. Its mild fragrance develops beautifully when shaved raw or lightly warmed over food, allowing the natural aroma to complement rather than overpower.
