This blend of ground Italian black truffle and sea salt is irresistible in the kitchen. Try over cooked egg dishes, tossed in pasta, on pâté or foie gras, or sprinkled on buttered popcorn. Truffles have been used in traditional medicine practices and as a high nutritional food. They’ve even been considered a “main component of folk medicine” because they are a rich source of proteins, amino acids, fatty acids, fiber, minerals, vitamins, terpenoids, sterols and carbohydrates.
