Tasting Notes from the Curator
Stefania Calugi Dehydrated Summer Truffle and Salt is the perfect addition to your pantry. This bottle of delicious dehydrated summer truffles is mixed with salt to create the perfect flavor enhancer. This delicious bottle comes with a built-in grater for ease of use. What makes this seasoning so special, aside from it being made with summer truffles? Summer truffles, compared to their perigord cousins, are far more subtle and subdued in flavor. They have a light flavor that is easily balanced with fish and other food items without any fear of it overpowering or stealing the spotlight from other ingredients. A truffle is 80% water, so what one is left with after the dehydration process is pure flavor. This is truly a must have for any serious pantry.
Preparation
This dehydrated truffle seasoning is perfect on a carpaccio or perhaps grated over your weekend brunch eggs to elevate the dish. IT is great as an accompaniment to simple salads, such as roquet, parmesan and balsamic. Add this seasoning (in lieu of salt) to your salads to add an extra layer of complexity. This salad pairs perfectly with a lightly seared salmon filet, seasoned slightly with salt and pepper. Consider replacing the salt for the dehydrated truffles instead. The perfect wine for this would be Sylvain Pataille Bourgogne Blanc “Les Mechalots” due to the intensity and fruitiness of this delicious white Burgundy.
