PROSCIUTTO TARTUFATO
The Product
A luxurious Italian cured ham (prosciutto) infused with the distinct earthy aroma and flavor of truffles, often summer truffles, creating a rich, savory delicacy with sweet, nutty, and intense truffle notes, perfect for upscale appetizers, charcuterie boards, or sophisticated sandwiches. It can be either crudo (dry-cured) or cotto (cooked), with the truffle flavor integrated during production for a unique taste.
Origin & Terroir
From Parma's prosciutto tradition, elevated with black truffles typically from Umbria or Piedmont. This combination marries two of Italy's most prestigious ingredients.
How to Enjoy
Slice thin to appreciate the truffle distribution. Serve at room temperature on warm bread or with fresh pasta. Pairs with Champagne, aged Franciacorta, or fine Barolo.
