Truffles don’t have to be a once-a-year thing.

We’ve added a small Italian truffle pantry collection for people who want an easy way to bring truffle flavor into everyday food — pasta, eggs, potatoes, mushrooms, steak, crostini, popcorn, pizza, warm bread, and more.

The Italian Truffle Gift Set includes five different ways to use truffles at home:

• Tartufata Truffle Sauce, 6 oz / 170 g
• White Truffle Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 3.4 fl oz / 100 ml
• Himalayan Pink Salt with Truffle, 3.5 oz / 100 g
• White Truffle Butter, 2.8 oz / 80 g
• Summer Truffle Carpaccio, 2.82 oz / 80 g

Use the salt and oil for finishing, tartufata for pasta and crostini, butter for warm dishes, and carpaccio when you want visible slices of truffle on the plate.

The full set is under $100, with standard shipping included!

Did you know Gentleman Forager supplies the best and widest variety of fresh and frozen wild and organic berries in the US? I love asking our customers to send a Pic and let us know what they made. I just received this photo of their version of bumbleberry pie. She was slightly embarrassed that she may have over filled the pie....my reaction was there is no such thing, it looks spectacular!!👊😆
