Autumn Truffle “Uncinatum”

Summer Black Truffle 

Tuber aestivum is a species of truffle in the family Tuberaceae. It was previously considered a variety of «Tuber melanosporum» and named as such in older texts. It is found across Europe, from Spain to Poland, and parts of China and Japan, where it forms symbiotic ectomycorrhizal associations with various species of pine and oak.

The summer black truffle is not as spectacularly fragrant and aromatic as the white truffle, but it does have a very nice perfume, much more subtle, but still quite lovely. They are better utilized by being cooked, to bring out the most of that subtly earthy chocolaty flavor as possible.

Summer truffles

They aren’t as aromatic as truffles found in the winter, but they still have their characteristic flavor. Summer truffles are harvested mainly in Italy just like most truffles.

The Tuber Magnatum Pico, Tuber Borchii truffle is known as the Marzuilli truffle and it is harvested quite frequently during the summer months. These truffles are also found mostly in the Piedmont, Tuscany, and Marches regions of Italy just like winter truffles. The average size for this type of truffle is about 2 ounces (about 56 grams).

Truffle DescriptionTasting notes

Summer Black Truffle is not so intensive in aroma and flavor. It is firm and has beautiful marbling of white-veined beige flesh. Summer truffles have the lightest and delicate earthy and nutty flavor from all truffles.
