In this article we present them to you.

Truffle juice
What is truffle juice
Black truffle juice is the extract of fresh truffle when cooked. The extract is obtained by boiling fresh black truffles (Tuber Melanosporum). The liquid retains all the essence of the truffle and as a result a very concentrated truffle juice is obtained.
The juice is obtained from the first cooking. The result is a juice of high quality and flavour, which cannot be compared to other second cooking products. Moreover, there are no preservatives: the product contains only truffle juice and salt.
Uses for truffle juice
Truffle juice is ideal for sauces and stews. It can be used if we want to add a touch of truffle to typical sauces such as mayonnaise, vinaigrette, hollandaise sauce or périgourdine. Likewise, it can be applied while cooking meat stews to provide that special truffle aroma. Its high concentration of truffle means that with a small quantity our recipes have a great added value.
