Truffle products refined with white or black truffle

Summer truffles from Viani and Co.

The summer truffle (Tuber aestivum Vitt.) has a slightly earthy, herbal aroma and a mild, nutty taste. The outside is brown and has a spiky appearance, while the inside is gray-white to gray-brown and is crossed by a fine network of light veins. In preserved form, summer truffles add a warm, nutty flavor to sauces, egg dishes and other dishes with creamy cheeses.

Viani and Co., our truffle line, which we have managed and maintained for decades, reminds us of the beginnings of our food business; it is essentially the first child of the Viani family. We have the precious truffles prepared and combined in the best possible way. Our tip: truffle mayonnaise with homemade French fries.
