Frozen Tuber borchii for Culinary Preparation
Frozen Tuber borchii is Spring White Truffle selected and frozen for culinary use beyond its fresh harvest period, subject to current stock availability. The frozen format is particularly practical for preparations where the truffle will be chopped, grated or incorporated and whole-truffle presentation is not essential.
Use frozen Tuber borchii in sauces, fillings, butter preparations, creams, pâtés, pasta, risotto, egg dishes, potatoes and meat preparations. Defrost only the quantity required under refrigeration and use it promptly. Freezing naturally changes the texture, and the truffle may become softer after defrosting. Aroma intensity may also differ from freshly harvested Tuber borchii.
Frequently Asked Questions About Frozen Tuber borchii
Practical guidance on identification, grades, frozen storage, defrosting, culinary use and delivery of Spring White Truffle.Frozen Tuber borchii is Spring White Truffle that has been selected, cleaned and frozen for storage and culinary use. Frozen stock may remain available outside the fresh harvest period, depending on approved batches and current inventory.
Yes. Spring White Truffle is the primary Terra Ross English common name for Tuber borchii. The species is also known as bianchetto, whitish or marzuolo truffle. It is distinct from the Italian White Truffle, Tuber magnatum.
Freezing naturally changes the texture, and the truffle may become softer after defrosting. Aroma intensity may also differ from freshly harvested truffle. Frozen Tuber borchii is therefore particularly suited to sauces, fillings, creams, butter preparations and cooked recipes.
Keep frozen Tuber borchii at or below −18°C. Store it sealed and protected from dehydration and strong surrounding odours. Follow the use-by or best-before date stated on the current product label.
Defrost only the quantity required under refrigeration. Keep room-temperature exposure as short as possible and use the defrosted product promptly in the chosen preparation.
Do not refreeze thawed Tuber borchii unless the current product label specifically permits it. Defrosting only the quantity required helps avoid unnecessary waste.
Use frozen Tuber borchii in sauces, fillings, butter preparations, creams, pâtés, pasta, risotto, egg dishes, potatoes and meat preparations. Its softer defrosted texture makes it especially practical for chopping, grating or incorporating into recipes.
No exact equivalence should be expected. Freezing, storage, maturity, origin and the individual batch can influence aromatic intensity. Frozen Tuber borchii may retain earthy, mushroom-like and garlicky characteristics, but the aroma can differ from fresh truffle.
Commercial grade describes physical selection, including size, shape, external appearance and intended culinary use. B Grade may include smaller or more irregular whole truffles with natural surface marks. Grade does not guarantee a particular aroma or flavour intensity.
Collect the parcel promptly, inspect the packaging and product, and transfer the truffles immediately to a freezer at or below −18°C. If the parcel is damaged, significantly delayed or shows signs that the frozen condition may not have been maintained, photograph the parcel and product and contact Terra Ross before use.
