How to preserve the Truffle
To
best appreciate the taste of the truffle, it should be consumed as
soon as possible.
However, there are certain ways to ensure that the taste and aroma
are maintained so it may also be enjoyed a few days after picking.
It is therefore necessary to:
| • |
Wrap each truffle in paper or fabric without removing the earth
|
| • |
Change
the wrapping every day
|
| • |
Store
in the fridge in a container which must be kept open to allow
the truffle to “breathe” (milk, butter, cheese and
eggs stored near the truffle tend to absorb its aroma)
|
| • |
When
the truffle appears to go soft it must be consumed immediately
as this is a sign that it has reached maximum maturity.
