Fine Food Dittmann Italian Black Summer Truffle Carpaccio 6.35 oz — Thin Shaved Slices in Olive Oil

Fine Food Dittmann 100% Italian Black Summer Truffle Carpaccio is ready-to-eat, ultra-thin slices of Tuber aestivum preserved in olive oil for year-round gourmet use.

These Italian black summer truffles are harvested late in the season when their flavor peaks, thinly shaved into carpaccio slices, then gently marinated in olive oil with a touch of salt. The preservation in oil and brine keeps the truffle aroma intact and extends shelf life to at least 12 months, so you can add gourmet truffle flavor to simple weeknight dishes or special occasion recipes without fuss.

How should I use truffle carpaccio to boost everyday meals?

Carpaccio slices are designed to be used last in the cooking process so the fragile truffle aroma is preserved. Add slices to finished pasta, salads, egg dishes, or as a finishing touch on fish and grilled meat to uplift familiar recipes with truffle flavor.

• Stir slices into hot pasta off the heat so aroma stays vibrant.
• Dress a salad with a spoonful of the infused oil and add a few slices.
• Top soft cheeses or crostini with a slice for an instant appetizer.
• Spooned oil works well for sautéing garlic before adding pasta.

What makes these truffles different from fresh truffles?

Fresh truffles are perishable and require immediate use or refrigeration, while carpaccio in oil offers convenience and consistency. The preservation process locks in the summer truffle's characteristic dark appearance and gentle aroma so you get dependable flavor without the need to hunt for fresh truffles.

• Shaved thin for immediate use—no grater required.
• Preserved in olive oil to maintain aroma and extend shelf life.
• Harvested late in season when flavor is mature and balanced.
• Ready to serve straight from the jar as an appetizer or garnish.

How much should I use and how do I store it?

A little goes a long way—thin slices and the infused oil are potent, so use sparingly to taste. After opening, refrigerate and consume within the timeframe printed on the label to enjoy best aroma and texture; always use a clean utensil to avoid contamination.

• Start with 4–6 slices for a pasta serving for two and adjust to taste.
• Use the olive oil from the jar to infuse sauces or sautés.
• Refrigerate after opening and follow jar guidance for consumption time.
• Avoid double-dipping to maintain product quality.

Can I cook with the oil in the jar?

Yes—the olive oil in the jar has absorbed truffle flavor and is ideal for light cooking and finishing. Use it to sauté garlic, toss with pasta, or drizzle over finished dishes to distribute perfume and taste without overwhelming the ingredients.

• Use oil for quick sautés and to flavor sauces.
• Drizzle over eggs, risotto, or roasted vegetables at plating.
• Combine with lemon or vinegar for a truffle-forward dressing.

Who is this for? Home cooks, professional chefs, and food lovers who want authentic Italian summer truffle flavor with minimal preparation will appreciate this carpaccio. It’s ideal for those who value convenience, consistent quality, and the ability to elevate everyday dishes—salads, pastas, eggs, cheeses, meats, and more—without sourcing fresh truffles or specialized equipment.
