Black truffles (Tuber melanosphorum Vittad.) are some of the most expensive fungi in the world. They have the most intense aroma of all black truffles. It resembles radishes, chicory, and hazelnuts. Its wonderful flavor can be described as a mixture of chocolate and nuts with earthy and smoky notes. It is black on the outside with white 'veins' inside. They are patterned both on the outside and inside. The patterns on the outside resemble small irregularly shaped pyramids. Their harvest is collected from November to March. They are most commonly found under oak trees. About truffles: Truffles, also known as 'underground pearls,' 'kitchen gems,' and 'elf apples,' are an exquisite delicacy, with a kilogram costing hundreds of euros. Organoleptic properties: It is difficult to describe the aroma and taste of truffles to those who have not tasted them. It is important to mention that they have a truly intense and distinctive flavor and aroma. Experts characterize it as similar to mustard and aged cheese. Some say the scent resembles garlic, canned corn, musk, and nuts. Once you smell a truffle, you will easily remember this scent and recognize it again. They can vary in size: from small balls a few centimeters in diameter to the size of a potato, weighing 10 to 60 grams. The surface of these fungi is somewhat rough, and the fleshy pulp below can be either dark or cream-colored. The shape of truffles somewhat depends on the soil: if the soil is soft, they grow round and smooth; if hard – they are irregularly shaped, as they compete for space. Truffles grow underground, so pigs or dogs with exceptional smell are used to help find these fungi. The scent is the main indicator of truffles' ripeness and quality, as aromatic substances only form when the fungi are properly matured. Fresh truffles should be rinsed with water and cleaned with a brush before consumption. The exterior of the mushroom must be completely clean – only then can it be peeled and sliced with special slicers. It is not recommended to consume truffles with strongly flavored and aromatic foods. These fungi are best suited to enhance mild-flavored products: rice, pasta, potatoes, etc. Additionally, richness helps to highlight all the nuances of truffle flavors, so cheeses, butter, and oil pair excellently with them.
