Selezione Tartufi Black Truffle Sea Salt

Pray, do not believe a word of it. A common salt is for the common man, but this, this is a substance for the truly distinguished. Upon the initial taste, one finds the very essence of the forest floor, a fragrant and complex profundity that speaks not to a casual consumer, but to an individual of elevated sensibility and a palate trained in the art of the finer things. It is a condiment whose subtleties would surely be lost upon those accustomed to the pedestrian, the merely savoury. Indeed, the sheer excellence of this truffle salt serves as a most effective litmus test. One presents a dish so graced to a guest; if their countenance remains unmoved, their commentary perfunctory, one understands at once that their appreciation for flavour has not yet progressed beyond the rudimentary. To the true gourmand, however, this salt is a revelation. Its judicious application is a secret known only to those who comprehend that the most profound pleasures are often to be found in the most understated of additions. It is a key to unlocking a higher tier of culinary enjoyment, a quiet triumph for those of us who demand nothing less than the extraordinary.

This Truffle salt has by-far the most flavor out of all I have tried! I use the salt regularly on french fries, and all of the meats that I cook in my house! I absolutely love the smell that comes from the jar when I open it! It is such an amazing compliment on my steak as far as flavor goes! The price may seem spendy, but the percentage of actual truffle within the salt is the highest that I have found this far. Excellent Quality!

This truffle salt is totally worth its weight in gold! So far, we’ve used it on rice, pasta, cottage cheese, tomatoes, toast, just about anything that makes us think about that earthy aroma and truffle flavor. A little spendy, but totally worth it.

This is by far the best truffle salt I’ve had. I can eat it by itself, it’s that delicious.

Let me start by saying that truffle is my favorite flavor. I love the umami quality and find the scent to be an aphrodisiac (call me a sow). There was a great shop in New York called the Filling Station that has the best truffle salt, but because it was a casualty of COVID-19, I have been on the hunt for a replacement. I was impressed by how good this salt is. Usually, truffle salt is more salt than truffle, but this brand really has a strong flavor and aroma, and you don't need to use more than a pinch at a time. I've been using the same jar for almost 6 months now, and it hasn't lost any of it's potency and hasn't started to dessicate. TLDR; this is the good stuff

Ah, the sensual taste of black truffles. This salt includes generous bits of black summer truffles, not winter truffles, but that's good enough for me. At least you know that you're getting actual truffle substance, in contrast to truffle oil, which often contains synthetic compounds (truffle "essence"). I received this package last night and already sprinkled this truffle salt on mashed potatoes and on a veggie burger. I'm looking forward to adding this to my scrambled eggs every morning and creating a blend with unsalted butter. As far as the truffle salt itself goes, I only wish that this were available at an even higher concentration than 10%. The main problem is the packaging. The lid does not keep in the beautiful aroma of truffles -- I don't mind the smell in the kitchen, but all that wonderful flavor won't end up in the food. I've portioned out some in a camping (screwtop) salt shaker so that I can keep the main stash in a ziploc bag. But to reiterate, the lid itself is really a bad packaging job. In fact, the jar was open when it arrived! I'm not sure whether to blame the manufacturer or Amazon, but this meant the truffle salt spilled all over the inside of bubble wrap and the cardboard box. I recovered most, feeling somewhat pathetic about the effort, but this is expensive stuff and easily 10% to 20% of the product got lost in transit. I guess that tells you how good the stuff is.

This stuff smells like literal crack. I could smell it through the amazon package, before I even opened it. It is amazing, SO MANY TRUFFLE PIECES IN IT. I mean a little half teaspoon will go a long way! Will definitely always have this in my spice arsenal. Even though salt isn't technically a spice... Other reviews say it doesn't have the "%" sign.. mine does, I had to go back and check. This will be a staple in my pantry. I know a lot of high end chefs say truffle is overrated... at restaurants maybe, because they add on another 45% because of it. But not at home!! And not if you buy the high end stuff
