Useful Tips on Buying and Storing Truffles

Useful Tips on Buying and Storing Truffles

Do you know the secret to getting the best out of a truffle’s flavor and aroma? It’s in the way you purchase and store your truffles. You need some techniques to make sure that your truffle is in best condition and your truffle recipes will stand out. Here are some helpful tips on buying and storing truffles.

Buying Truffle

• Ask the vendor or sales clerk to make a small slice out of the truffle so that you can view its meat and judge if it is in good condition.

• Choose truffles that have been cleaned. A truffle’s dirt or cleanliness has nothing to do with its freshness, smell, and flavor. So go for the clean ones. Not only does it make you pay less for a lighter pack of truffles, but it also allows you to see what you are actually buying.
