The approaching holiday season gives us the opportunity to celebrate all the things we are thankful to our families, despite a long and challenging year. Of course, meals are a special part of a Filipino family celebration, and this year, why not find ways to make them extra special?
One way to level up your holiday meals is with truffle oil and sauce, a highly versatile ingredient that can significantly enhance the flavor and aroma of a wide variety of dishes. Their products were created with years of research on the unique and authentic flavor of the truffle.
Umbria Terra Di Tartufi has three variants of truffle oils and sauces – White Truffle Oil, Original Black Truffle Sauce, and Black Truffle Sauce 5%.
White Truffle Oil vs Black Truffle Sauce
Umbria Terra Di Tartufi’s white truffle oil is a condiment based on olive oil, dehydrated Bianchetto truffle and white truffle aroma. It is used almost exclusively as a finishing oil, meaning it is added to a dish near or at the end of preparation, as its potency is heat-sensitive and not suitable as a cooking oil.
Meanwhile, black truffle has a more intense and robust flavor, which some may describe as more earthy and nutty with some chocolate notes. Umbria Terra Di Tartufi’s black truffle sauce is made with fresh Champignon mushrooms, extra virgin olive oil, black olives, and the natural flavor of black summer truffle.
Best pairings with white truffle oil
A few drops of Umbria Terra Di Tartufi’s white truffle oil can already go a long way towards enhancing the flavor of dishes. It works best mixed in fresh with pasta recipes and risotto, so if you will be serving spaghetti or carbonara this Christmas, try drizzling some white truffle oil.
You can also simply pour some white truffle oil over movie snacks such as popcorn, French fries, or pizza, and you can even mix it with ketchup, mayonnaise, or hummus to make your holiday movie marathons even more extra.
Best pairings with black truffle sauce
Umbria Terra Di Tartufi’s original black truffle sauce comes ready to use, and you can enhance its taste even more by sauteing some garlic and oil, letting it cool, and then pouring the product contained in the jar. To use original black truffle sauce, simply heat it up and mix with your choice of pasta, meat, fish, potatoes, roasted vegetables, or salad, and you get an effortlessly luxurious meal. If you want, you can even add some drops of fresh cooking cream.
The black truffle sauce from Umbria Terra Di Tartufi also comes in a 5% variant, which is a special dressing sauce with intense flavor, naturally darker color, and a high-quality selection of mushrooms and a special blend of spices. They hope to help people make the wisest investments, smartest decisions, and best choices to transform and lead a healthier lifestyle.
