Truffe Noire du Périgord Fraîche Extra is a fresh Périgord black truffle of the species Tuber melanosporum, produced by Truffière du Terrail in Sainte-Orse, Dordogne.

The truffles come from the estate’s own Ecocert-certified organic plantation and are harvested at maturity. Before dispatch, Éric Allégret sorts and individually inspects them using canifage, a technique involving a small surface cut to assess their maturity and condition.

They are characterized by a refined and complex aroma, particularly expressive in simple egg dishes and when paired with fats that capture and carry their fragrance. They can be added in thin shavings, and the producer recommends adding them toward the end of preparation and avoiding prolonged cooking to preserve their aromatic character.
