The summer truffle (Tuber aestivum), also known as the scorzone, is a hypogeous fungus that grows mainly in deciduous and coniferous forests. Its uniqueness lies in its ability to develop in symbiosis with the roots of plants such as oak, hazel and beech, from which it obtains essential nutrients. This truffle is characterised by a rough black exterior and a light-coloured interior, ranging from beige to hazel as it matures. Its aroma is delicate and pleasant, with notes reminiscent of porcini mushrooms and hazelnuts, making it a highly prized ingredient in the kitchen. The harvest of summer truffles usually takes place between May and September, when expert foragers, often accompanied by trained dogs, venture into the woods to find them. Unlike other truffles, the summer truffle is more economically accessible, making it an ideal option for adding a touch of luxury to pasta, risotto, carpaccio and omelettes. Its versatility and relatively low cost help to keep alive the culinary tradition associated with this precious mushroom.
