 La Tourangelle Black Truffle Oil begins with expeller-pressed Grapeseed oil, which is slowly infused with back truffle aroma following a 150-year-old French tradition. It was very recently recommended by The Wine Spectator. Read the article in our News section.
Usage
Black Truffles originate in Provence, France and are one of the most precious ingredients of Mediterranean cooking. The strong, intense, earthy flavor of this oil will bring a deep aroma to your dishes, and will especially complement pasta, mashed potatoes, meat and other dishes.
Health benefits
The black truffle aroma is infused in grapeseed oil which is a great oil. As one of the richest natural sources of linoleic acid, grapeseed oil can do wonders when it comes to fighting heart disease and bad cholesterol. Linoleic acid is a member of the polyunsaturated fatty acid family. These fatty acids tend to blend with cholesterol in the blood and transform it into something the body knows how to get rid of.
Production process
Just like the most prestigious perfumes, the black truffle aroma is very rare, expensive and difficult to source. Only a few companies master the art of producing the aroma. We infuse the aroma in grapeseed oil because of its great properties and its neutral flavor that won’t interfere with the aroma like olive oil may do.
