A neutral sunflower and olive oil blend carrying summer truffle, with freeze-dried truffle petals left in the bottle.
The base is deliberately quiet: seventy percent sunflower, so nothing competes with the truffle. The petals at the bottom are a good sign that the aroma is not only a flavouring.
Balme prepares its truffle condiments in Larressore, a village in the French Basque Country, with vegetables grown locally.
A thread over risotto, pasta or a carpaccio, added off the heat. We keep it away from the stove and away from the light.
