Characterized by a very jagged external rind, with large pyramidal warts, to which it owes the popular name of “Scorzone“, the Black Summer Truffle, collected in the period between the last Sunday of May and 31 August, among all truffles is one of the most versatile, able to withstand cooking quite well.

The Scorzone, thanks to its pleasant and delicate aroma, almost fungal, and its strong but not excessive flavor, which makes it perfect for the preparation of tasty sauces, is also appreciated by those who do not like too intense flavors.

The composition of this completely natural truffle sauce, made without the use of raw materials of animal origin (charcoal is used as a coloring agent) makes it ideal for vegan customers, and for all those who love the simple flavors of the past.

Tips for the kitchen

The vegan truffle sauce lends itself to many different types of preparations:

• Perfect to spread on toasted bread, canapés and croutons, for a delicious appetizer or a delicious aperitif, perhaps accompanied by a glass of Brunello di Montalcino.
• Ideal as a condiment for important first courses such as tagliatelle or homemade fettuccine: just add a bit of cooking water to the sauce to make them reach the right degree of creaminess, and add a drizzle of raw extra virgin olive oil to the pasta after having served it, for a perfect result.
• Added to the mixture of meatballs or soy burgers, the vegan truffle sauce will give these dishes an extra boost of taste. Try it with a side of cannellini beans (flavored with a teaspoon of sauce), and you will be conquered!

Storage

The vegan truffle sauce does not contain preservatives: once the jar has been opened, the sauce should be consumed as soon as possible: it is recommended to close the jar well and keep it in the refrigerator for a maximum of 3 days.
