WHITE ALBA TRUFFLE
White Truffle Description:
Known by the region where it gained its fame, the white Alba truffle, or “Tuber magnatum”, is also found further south in many areas of central Italy including: Marche, Abruzzi, Umbria, Emilia-Romagna, Molise, Lazio and Toscana. T.magnatum are particularly fond of oak, chestnut, poplar and willow trees. Their season is short, befitting such a thoroughbred: October to the end of December, although they are known to stay on until January. The skin ranges from yellowish to light olive color and the interior can range from whitish to yellowish to beige, sometimes with scattered reddish blotches. Brush this truffle clean just before using and serve sliced paper-thin scattered over your favorite pasta, veal, risotto, or omelet. The heady swoon of garlic and Parmesan of the “white diamond” is not to be missed. Revel in its time by pairing white truffles with chestnuts in an autumn soup, garnished with roasted porcini.
