Truffles have many nicknames: The "jewels of nature", the "nobility of the forest" and "black gold" are all appropriate in describing the truffle as an elite food item. The white truffle, found mainly in the forests of Tuscany, is the most prized truffle of them all. Cristiano Savini learned his truffle-related secrets from his father, who learned them from his father, and so on. It is from the rare white truffle that Savini uses to make his White Truffle Paste, the pride of his line of over 50 truffle-based items. Capturing the essence of the white truffle, use it sparingly atop hors d'oeuvres, stirred into pasta and rice dishes, and as a condiment for roasted meat and game. A gastronomic dream, this easy-to-use paste allows you to enjoy the fragrance of the Tuscan forest in your own kitchen and dining room.

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I've always heard remarkable things about truffles yet never tried them even in all of my epicurious adventures.I love mushrooms but this was more metallic tasting than earthy.It's not unbearable but not at all what I expected.I figured with all the amazing things I've heard and the price it would be savory beyond my wildest imagination but not the case.I knew I had to try it or I would never be happy so I'm glad I did but I wouldn't get it again.You'll never know unless you try.I hate to disocorage anyone from trying it,it may be wonderful to another's palate.
