Tartufi Jimmy Summer Black Truffle Slices 2.9 oz Jar — Italian sunflower-oil preserved, no preservatives

Summer black truffle slices preserved in sunflower oil — ready-to-use gourmet truffles from Italy for finishing dishes.

These Martha Stewart & Jimmy Tartufi Summer Black Truffle Slices (2.9 oz jar) deliver preserved Tuber aestivum Vittad harvested in the EU, thinly sliced and suspended in neutral sunflower oil with sea salt and natural flavor. Packaged by a family-run Italian house with roots back to 1980, the jar is designed to keep authentic truffle aroma and texture available long after harvest so you can add truffle character to meals without needing fresh fungi.

How should I use these truffle slices to get the best flavor?

Add the slices at the final stage of plating so the delicate truffle perfume remains vivid — heat diminishes aroma. They are ideal as a finishing garnish on eggs, pasta, risotto, carpaccio, bruschetta, or simply with a splash of olive oil. A little goes a long way: thin slices provide concentrated flavor without overwhelming the dish.

• Place slices on warm, just-off-heat dishes to preserve aroma.
• Use as a final garnish for soft scrambled eggs or risotto.
• Pair with plain olive oil, butter, or mild cheeses to highlight truffle notes.
• Spoon the preserving oil sparingly as an additional flavor layer.
