Preservation of fresh truffle
You bought fresh truffles but you can not use it right away, and so you’re afraid you’ll get bad … Quiet, here for you there are 3 effective methods to best preserve your fresh truffles.
First of all, we have to say that preserve truffle through rice is deprecated, because rice is dehydrated – it would absorb all liquids and flavour to truffle – here’s to you some little tips…
Preservation in fridge
The firts advice it’s also the easier, it consists in preserving truffles in the fridge, closed in an airtight food container, covered with some blotting paper (which will be replaced every day).
In this way it will save for a week.
And a little tip for the sweet thoot: in the airtight container, with the truffle, you can put also some fresh eggs.
This ones, thanks to their porous shell, they will absorb a part of truffle flavor, becoming truffled and ready for a scented omelette.
Freeze the truffle
Second way: freeze them in a food glass or plastic container.
The only care is, when you’re going to use them, do it when they still frozen, don’t defrost them because they would become gummy and it wouldn’t be possibile to slice them anymore.
Obviously truffles should be cleaned before freezing.
In this way preservation would last up to 6 months.
Preservation with oil or butter
Third way: preserve it frozen covered with extra virgin oil or butter.
Maybe it’s some step longer, but it’s worth.
When it’s fresh slice it and place the flakes inside the ice trays and, according to taste, cover it with extra virgin oil or melted butter.
The butter method also has two ways to be melted: dissolve at room temperature or heat it in a double boiler clarifying it (you have to remove the patina that forms on the surface).
Once combined this mixture with the truffle, put it in the freezer.
The following day, the iced cubes must be placed inside an airtight food container and place in the freezer again.
In this way, preservation would be effective for a pair of months.
