There is not only the prized black truffle, typically autumn and winter, but also its summer variant, which goes by the name of Scorzone. Its delicacy makes it perfect for many types of preparations and much appreciated by those who do not like particularly strong aromas and flavours.

For a simple and quick recipe, we recommend preparing a delicious truffle sauce, perfect for seasoning crostini and other dishes.

Start by carefully brushing the truffles, then wash, dry, and grate part of them, while slicing the rest into thin flakes. In a small pan, lightly sauté a garlic clove with four tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, then add the grated truffles and a pinch of salt. Let it cook for a minute.

Meanwhile, toast the bread and spread the prepared sauce over it, finishing with the truffle flakes for an even more refined and flavorful touch.

Tip: This truffle sauce is a versatile condiment, ideal for enhancing appetizers, pasta dishes, and main courses. Once prepared, it can be stored in a tightly sealed jar in the refrigerator for 2-3 days or frozen for longer preservation, though the flavor may slightly change.
