OREGON TRUFFLES HAVE A DIFFERENT FLAVOR THAN THE IMPORTED ONES, AT A TRUFFLE TASTING, IT WAS SAID THAT FOR THE PRICE, OREGON TRUFFLES ARE WORTH IT. THEY DO NOT TASTE LIKE THE IMPORTED ONES, BUT HAVE AN EXCELLENT AROMA AND FLAVOR WHEN USED AT THEIR PEAK. The price is much more reasonable, the shelf life is about one week. Use when the aroma is apparent.
“The flavoring agent is volatile and fat-soluble, so long cooking simply results in your kitchen smelling very good, but most of the flavor is lost.
USE: flavoring of soft cheeses, broiled meats, and rice. The flavor is very strong and only a small amount is needed.” Tom Volk
*Please understand the Oregon Truffles have a mild aroma and flavor. They do not compare to Italian.
Sold in 3 oz. increments. If you put 2 in your cart, you are purchasing 6 oz. of truffles.
