Description
White Truffles can be found in the Italian regions of Emilia-Romagna, Piedmont, Marche and Molise. They also grow to a lesser extent in Tuscany, Umbria and Abruzzo.
The unmistakable aroma of White Truffle is pungent but pleasant, with a hint of garlic. It is best enjoyed raw, cut into thin slices using a truffle slicer to complete a dish.
The peridium is smooth and golden or olive yellow in colour, sometimes with reddish-brown patches. The gleba is greyish white in colour in mature specimens, with shades ranging from golden to hazelnut, with very fine white veins. Sometimes the gleba includes pale pink patches – this is due to the presence of particular enzymes in the soil and has no negative impact on the quality of the product.
Love of the land
Love of the land is another distinctive feature of Appennino Food Group.
Despite its enormous growth, the company decided to base itself in Valsamoggia, an area that has always been synonymous with white truffles and a strategic site of unparalleled beauty.
This link to the land is reflected in our name: the Apennines go from north to south, passing through almost all of Italy and offer uncountable riches in terms of food and culture, which Appennino Food Group has always sought to promote.
Appennino Food Group’s vocation is to bring this land to the global stage. By selling highly prized truffles all around the world, the company is not just exporting a product, but an entire culture, built on respect for raw ingredients and the places where they grow, on tradition and on cutting-edge technology.
