Tuber Uncinatum VITT Tondello comprises very small or small black hooked truffles, selected for use in cooking where appearance is not a priority.

Ideal for sauces, fondues or grating, they offer the intensity of truffle flavour at a more affordable price.
The Tuber Uncinatum VITT first choice is a black hooked truffle of high quality, but with slight imperfections compared to the Extra category. It has a more irregular shape and some surface imperfections, but retains the aromatic quality that characterises this truffle.

This category is ideal for those seeking a truffle of excellent quality, but without the need for perfect aesthetics.
The Tuber Uncinatum VITT Extra, known as the black hooked truffle, is selected from the best specimens collected on the grounds of the Valtrebbia Truffle company and from the collaboration with experienced Italian truffle hunters. Regular in shape and generous in size, this truffle has a black, warty rind, while the inner flesh is light brown with clearly visible white veins. Its aroma is intense and earthy, with hints of hazelnut and mushroom, making it perfect for autumn and winter haute cuisine dishes. This Extra quality is chosen for its impeccable appearance and strong aromatic impact.
La Tuber Uncinatum VITT Spaccato désigne les truffes noires à crochets qui, en raison d'une fissuration naturelle ou de dommages mineurs survenus au cours de la récolte, présentent une forme imparfaite. Malgré son aspect imparfait, la truffe fendue conserve tout l'arôme typique de la Tuber Uncinatum, avec ses notes de champignons, de noisettes et de sous-bois. C'est une option idéale pour une utilisation en cuisine, où l'aspect esthétique passe au second plan, mais où la saveur reste essentielle.
