Truffle Toast
Truffle toast is a great example of simple yet amazing French cooking. Don’t hold back with those thinly sliced truffles! Their distinctive earthy aroma should infuse every bite of the crispy, butter-rich bread. When your toast turns that perfect golden brown, look for those beautiful truffle pieces peeking through, telling you that you’ve created something truly special. This elegant appetizer deserves nothing less than a chilled glass of white wine by its side, completing a quintessential French experience that turns simple ingredients into pure luxury on a plate.

Truffle Tip 1
It’s best to crush Truffle with a fork to extract the most flavour. Using the fork breaks open the spores and liberates the notes of their perfume as well as creates different sizes that will excite your tastebuds while eating the dish.
Truffle Tips 2
A little-known fact about the Winter black truffle (Tuber Melanosporum) is that transferring the flavours from the truffle to the requires time and heat.
It’s common in restaurants to see Truffle sliced raw over the top of a dish. This is not the only way to use Winter black Truffle Tuber Melanosporum. The slicing of raw Truffle over a dish is special to only one truffle, the white truffle Tuber Magnatum from Alba.
