Truffle Honey- A Blend of Rare Ingredients
We make our White Truffle Honey by blending white and black truffles with acacia-honey. Both ingredients are local to the town of Alba, Italy.
Acaccia honey celebrated for its light sweetness, ideally complements the truffle’s pungent aroma.
Nutrition and Benefits
Due to acacia honey's antioxidant and antibacterial properties, it may help speed wound healing and prevent bacterial contamination and infection. Additionally, this honey helps maintain a moist environment while providing a protective barrier, which can aid wound healing.
Therefore truffle honey balances the sweet, gourmet, and health benefits to the uniqueness of Truffles.
Cheese Trays:
- Place cubes of gorgonzola, Piedmont Robiola, Piedmont Tuma, parmesan, sharp cheddar, and brie cheeses on a tray and drizzle with truffle honey. Add grissini, prosciutto pâté, toasted bread, and grapes on the side;
- Place slices of Roquefort, goat cheese, camembert, Grana Padano, and manchego cheeses on a tray and drizzle with truffle honey. Add toasted baguette, melon slices, and foie gras on the side.
Also great on:
- Salads with feta cheese;
- Fruit salads (w/o citrus juice);
- Banana with parmesan;
- Of course, to finish with our favorite blend, a mixed dish of dry nuts, it’s excellent with Truffle Honey.
- The crazy idea:
First, melt parmesan cheese in a pan, immediately add white truffle honey. Secondly, let the dish cool until it becomes crunchy; lastly, drizzle it again with truffle honey, and serve cold.
Truffle Honey Storage
Truffle honey has a shelf life of two years. Therefore it can be enjoyed when truffles are not in season.
Do not refrigerate
Last but not least, store it in a dry place away from sunlight.
Wine Pairing
Following some Italian traditions, cheese trays will be served toward the end of the meal, just before coffee or grappa. In this case, the best wines are Passito, Barolo Chinato, or even lovely white Vermouth on the rocks.
Instead, If you serve cheese before the main meal, your best wine pairing will be a sparkling wine, especially when it has higher acidity, which will help to cleanse your palate in-between bites. Our best recommendation will be the Italian Classic Method, Franciacorta, Trento DOC. Alta Langa. Also, you could use Prosecco.
