Dedicated events and the world of truffles
Time ofautumn, time... of truffles! Along with chestnuts and mushrooms in general, truffles are one of Italy's culinary excellences of the season that bridges from summer to winter.
One of the main showcases of high gastronomy is the International Fair of the White Truffle of Alba; although there are other renowned areas of Italy (an example is the Marche region of Acqualagna), the Langhe is the kingdom of what is not a simple mushroom, but the symbol of high quality cuisine, the teller of a long story of flavors and traditions, which tells us a long journey, from the mystery of the search to the passion for the flavors of the earth.
That of the truffle is a large family; in fact, there are numerous species of truffles, which possess very different organoleptic characteristics. Similarly, there are different models of truffle cutters and truffle slicers, and due to the fact that it is a valuable ingredient that needs to be enhanced to the fullest, high-end venues require a set of tools that are not only functional, but also design.
RGLife 's job is to guide you through RGmania's dedicated assortment.
Truffle cutters and slicers, types and differences
Themain differences between the truffle cutters and slicers on our site are:
- the material: 100% stainless steel (as in the case of the Tufo truffle cutter made of stainless steel) or wood (usually olive and rosewood, see the Sanelli Ambrogio truffle slicer in olive wood);
- the size: in addition to the 'regular' type, maxi-sized ones are gaining popularity (one among all the Sanelli Ambrogio giant truffle cutter in stainless steel with rosewood handle);
- the blade: smooth (for example the Sanelli Ambrogio stainless steel smooth-bladed truffle cutter with olive handle and the Sanelli Ambrogio stainless steel smooth blade truffle cutter) or wavy (theSanelli Ambrogio stainless steel stainless steel wavy blade truffle slicer and the stainless steel serrated truffle cutter).
Almost all of these products have wheels to adjust the thickness of the slice, with exceptions such as theSanelli Ambrogio XFETTA truffle slicer designed by chef Davide Oldani, which is first and foremost a collector's item.
These are versatile tools (to which, if desired, abase), the best assortment of which available on the market is by Sanelli Ambrogio, in most cases also employable for other foods-mushrooms and vegetables, but also grana flakes or small slices of carpaccio.
Gloves and scales, domes and cutting boards: how to 'cure' and present truffles
Always 'behind the scenes,' however, thetruffle slicer should be joined by other tools: the Sanelli Ambrogio glove, reinforced on three fingers and designed to protect the right hand during cutting; the truffle brush, ideal for removing soil and residue from truffles in order to be able to work them at their best, enhancing their aromas; various types of digital kitchen scales, for those who wish to serve by the gram, setting the price according to the market.
If you aim for quality service, then, the non plus ultra is the Sanelli Ambrogio wooden cutting board with dome, also equipped with a truffle cutter, stainless steel, dome that serves to present it at the table before cutting it; two other products indicated are the Sanelli Ambrogio acrylic Tuberpack truffle container and the saucer with glass dome, to preserve the durability of the truffle in olfactory terms and to fully appreciate the quality of this prized mushroom before serving it.
