Weight : 90g — an ideal size for an aperitif, occasional use or to discover this refined product.
Type : Caviar / gourmet cream made with artichokes, subtly enhanced with summer truffle. An elegant blend for lovers of fine cuisine.
🍃 Ingredients & preparation
-
Typical ingredients : artichokes (≈ 63–90% depending on the recipe), olive oil or sunflower oil, cooking juices from the artichokes, summer truffle (e.g., Tuber aestivum), salt, pepper, sometimes herbs or spices.
-
Method : artisanal or semi-artisanal production, without artificial preservatives — the idea is to preserve the natural flavor of the artichokes and the delicate aroma of the truffle.
Sensory profile
-
Taste : a subtle and refined blend — the sweetness and finesse of artichokes combine with the slightly earthy and elegant note of summer truffle.
-
Texture : smooth, sometimes with small pieces of artichokes retained to provide a bit of chewiness — which gives a pleasant “vegetable caviar” feel in the mouth.
-
Aroma : discreet yet refined fragrance — the artichoke brings sweet vegetal notes, and the summer truffle adds that light, elegant, aromatic truffle scent.
