Black Truffle Sea Salt by Acqualagna Tartufi 100g - Truffle
Salt
Brand: Acqualagna Tartufi
This wonderful, aromatic truffle salt is made with
Cervia sea salt with the addition of highly prized black summer
truffle. Cervia is a small town on Italy's Adriatic coast known for
its fantastic gourmet sea salt harvested by hand from the very last
remaining artisanal salt flats in Italy. Our truffle salt will give
an earthy truffle kick to many dishes. It is excellent for
flavouring meats, especially steaks or grilled meat, for sprinkling
on a bowl of pasta or risotto or even over a bruschetta. You can
add it to scrambled eggs, omelettes, salads or baked potatoes -
basically anywhere that you would use normal salt. A little goes a
long way and it lasts for ages! Our producer - Acqualagna Tartufi
Unless you are a serious foodie, you've probably never heard of
Acqualagna. It is a small town of just over 4,000 inhabitants in
the region of Marche. A beautiful national forest surrounds the
town and in the hills nearby are protected truffle hunting grounds.
Licensed truffle hunters and their dogs work in the wood, searching
for of the elusive Tuber Magnatum Pico - the cherished wild, white
truffle. These truffles, when the weather and conditions are just
right, grow 10 to 12 inches underground in humid environments and
mature in the autumn. Acqualagna is the only place in the world
where you can find any type of truffle and three important fairs
are held in this small city in correspondence to the harvest
periods of the different product varieties. Our partner in
Acqualagna is Acqualagna Tartufi, a truffle company with over 30
years' experience who harvest a range of different types of
truffles, some of which have grown in organically certified ground.
Acqualagna Tartufi pride themselves on their use of old techniques
passed down from father to son. Their truffle delicacies are
created using traditional recipes without artificial colours or
preservatives.
