Fresh Burgundy Truffle – Tuber uncinatum EXTRA Grade

Fresh Burgundy Truffle (Tuber uncinatum), also known as the autumn truffle, is a seasonal European truffle with an earthy woodland aroma, firm texture and characteristic nutty flavour. Its versatile profile makes it suitable for pasta, risotto, eggs, potatoes, sauces and refined meat dishes.

Terra Ross EXTRA Grade truffles are individually inspected and selected for freshness, firmness, maturity, regular shape and premium visual presentation. Choose the required total quantity from the available pack-size options.

What EXTRA Grade Means

EXTRA Grade represents the highest presentation grade within the available seasonal harvest. The selection consists of whole, firm truffles with predominantly rounded or regular natural shapes and no serious visible defects.

Individual Truffle Size

Individual truffles generally weigh approximately 20–100 g and measure approximately 4–8 cm in diameter. Because truffles develop naturally underground, variation in weight, diameter, shape and surface appearance is expected.

Aroma, Flavour and Texture

Fresh Tuber uncinatum has an earthy and woodland aroma with characteristic nutty, mushroom-like and savoury notes. The interior is typically dark brown with fine pale marbling, although its exact colour and pattern vary naturally between individual truffles.

The texture should be firm when fresh. Its aroma becomes more noticeable after slicing or shaving, particularly when served with warm ingredients containing butter, cream, eggs or mild cheese.

How to Use Fresh Burgundy Truffle

Clean the truffle gently shortly before use. Slice, shave or grate it thinly and add it near the end of preparation or immediately before serving. Gentle warmth can help release its aroma, but prolonged cooking and intense direct heat should be avoided.

Recommended culinary uses include:

  • shaved over fresh pasta and risotto;
  • served with scrambled, poached or fried eggs;
  • paired with potato purée or roasted potatoes;
  • combined with butter, cream and mild cheeses;
  • served with mushrooms and seasonal vegetables;
  • paired with poultry, veal, beef or game.

For a balanced result, use restrained seasoning and avoid ingredients that may overpower the natural aroma of the truffle.

Freshness, Packing and Delivery

Every order is inspected before dispatch. The truffles are carefully wrapped in absorbent paper, placed in food-safe protective packaging and packed in insulated packaging with cooling materials.

Storage After Delivery

Open the packaging promptly after delivery, inspect the truffles and refrigerate them at approximately +2°C to +4°C. Keep them dry in a sealed glass container lined with clean absorbent paper.

Replace the paper daily or whenever it becomes damp and inspect the truffles regularly. For the best aroma, flavour and texture, use them promptly, preferably within 5–8 days depending on their condition when received.

Do not wash, slice, shave or grate the truffles until shortly before preparation.
