Extra virgin olive oil with summer black truffle – flavoured Greek olive oil (Geusi Vounou, 100 ml)
Geusi Vounou olive oil with summer black truffle is a flavoured extra virgin olive oil for seasoning finished or nearly finished dishes. It contains 97.9 % extra virgin olive oil, flavourings and 0.1 % dried summer black truffle.
This is not pure olive oil pressed with truffles or a macerated oil with a high truffle content. The product combines Greek extra virgin olive oil with truffle flavouring and a small amount of dried summer black truffle T. aestivum.
It has a pronounced truffle character, so a small amount is usually enough. It works best when used to season and complement the finished dish rather than overpower it. Use it with pasta, risotto, potatoes, eggs, mushrooms, mild meats, carpaccio or creamy vegetable soups.
How to use
- For seasoning pasta and risotto – add a few drops to the finished dish or just before serving.
- With potatoes, eggs and mushrooms – it works well with boiled or roasted potatoes, scrambled eggs, omelettes or sautéed mushrooms.
- With meat and carpaccio – use it to finish beef carpaccio, roast chicken or gently cooked beef.
- In soups and purées – a small amount brings out the flavour of mashed potato, celeriac purée or creamy mushroom, cauliflower or pumpkin soup.
The oil is ready to use directly from the bottle. Use it as a finishing oil; no further preparation is needed.
