For kitchens that regularly season with truffles.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhite truffle oil\u003c\/strong\u003e in 250 ml is Vitelium's truffle seasoning oil, made with the company's own olive oil from Molise and flavored with white truffle aroma. No fresh tuber in the jar, no oil for frying, no sample size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVitelium white truffle oil in 250 ml\u003c\/strong\u003e solves a well-known kitchen problem. Fresh white truffles are only available for a few weeks a year, expensive, and their aroma quickly fades. The seasoning oil combines extra virgin olive oil from the manufacturer's groves with truffle aroma and a small amount of Bianchetto truffle. This ensures a consistent aroma all year round, which can be precisely dosed drop by drop. The large bottle is aimed at households that already know this. Those who often finish risotto, pasta, or purée with truffle, or cook for guests, will save themselves the constant need to buy small bottles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA concentrated seasoning oil with truffle at the forefront\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe truffle oil's effect is immediate and pronounced: earthy, spicy, with the slightly garlicky note associated with white truffles. This impression lingers on the palate. A quick swirl in a spoon is enough to gauge its potency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe green olive oil at its base provides freshness and a delicate bitterness. It prevents the truffle from tasting sweet or flat. This is especially evident in larger portions, where the base distributes the aroma evenly across the entire plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThose expecting a truffle oil with a subtle background note will find this too intense. It also cannot replace the character of freshly shaved truffle slices. It is a seasoning tool, not truffle in liquid form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOne teaspoon is enough for six plates of risotto\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer recommends hot dishes with potatoes, pasta, rice, meat, and fish. The same rule applies to all: the oil is added only at the very end. A risotto for six people receives one teaspoon of truffle oil after the mantecatura, the stirring in of butter and Parmesan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe large bottle is particularly worthwhile for a buffet or a multi-course menu. Baked potatoes or oven fries are tossed while hot with salt, grated Pecorino, and a few drops. Creamy polenta can handle half a teaspoon per four portions. Even pizza bianca with mozzarella and potato slices receives the oil only after baking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a quick truffle mayonnaise, mix 150 g of mayonnaise with one teaspoon of oil and a little lemon zest. It pairs well with burgers, cold roast beef, and grilled vegetables. Those who prefer to serve truffle with pasta in a creamy form can also choose the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/vitelium-trueffelpesto-tartufata-90g\"\u003eTruffle Pesto Tartufata\u003c\/a\u003e from the same manufactory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBased on experience:\u003c\/strong\u003e Never pour the oil directly from the bottle onto the plate. Using a teaspoon as an intermediate step prevents an entire splash from landing on the risotto. With a seasoning oil of this intensity, an over-dosed plate cannot be saved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOlive oil from Provvidenti, truffle aroma as a stable carrier\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe olives for the truffle oil grow in the village of Provvidenti near Campobasso, where Davide Petrollino manages his family's groves. The plant biologist with a doctorate is responsible for cultivation and processing there. In Hamburg, Constanze Engelbrecht runs Vitelium GmbH and organizes distribution in Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHarvesting begins early and is done by hand while the olives are still green. This gives the base oil its freshness, which is important in the truffle oil as a counterpoint to the earthy aroma. The truffles for the manufactory are collected by truffle hunter Angelo with his dogs in Molise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to the ingredients list, the truffle aroma comes from an aroma assigned to the white truffle Tuber magnatum Pico, with a 4 percent share. Bianchetto truffle is included at 0.5 percent. Because the oil is flavored, it is labeled as seasoning oil rather than extra virgin olive oil. An aroma has one practical advantage: it reliably retains its quality throughout its 18 to 24-month shelf life from the date of bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe bottle for hosts and truffle kitchens\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 250-ml bottle is suitable for anyone who already knows the oil and uses it regularly. It is also the right choice for hosts planning truffle risotto for an entire table. Store it away from light and in a cool place, always keeping the cap tightly closed, so that the aroma is preserved for as long as possible after opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThose who want to try the oil for the first time or are looking for a small gift are better served by the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/vitelium-weisses-trueffeloel-100ml\"\u003e100 ml truffle oil\u003c\/a\u003e. It is less suitable for hot dishes with a lot of acidity or chili, as both overpower the truffle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTruffle aroma in stock, honestly labeled and made with green olive oil from Molise: for everyone who likes to serve risotto and pasta with a hint of truffle.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Vitelium","offers":[{"title":"250 ml","offer_id":57790662508870,"sku":"045VIT0002","price":21.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/4960\/1350\/files\/vitelium-weisses-trueffeloel-250ml.png?v=1793882221","url":"https:\/\/genussland.de\/en\/products\/vitelium-weisses-trueffeloel-250ml","provider":"genussland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
