Black truffle olive oil is a condiment based on olive oil, black truffle aroma and shavings of summer truffle (Tuber Aestivum Vitt.). You can use it fresh to dress salads, soups, bruschette, pasta, meat and fish, just a few drops are enough. Although Elisabetta and Leonardo Matteucci (brother and sister) only founded Valnerina Tartufi in 2007, the company draws on over 50 years of experience from the entire family and neighboring truffle hunters. Valnerina is arguably the most beautiful part of Umbria, and strictly translated means "little valley of the Nera". It is here, in the green heart of Italy, in the shades of oaks, poplars and lime trees, that these truffles thrive. Adhering to time-honored and traditional techniques, these truffle products truly reflect the rustic and verdant countryside, and are conserved in local olive oil to ensure a perfect conservation in the jar.
