Dried Black Truffles Sliced 1oz, Premium Grade

I absolutely loves truffles and buy them a lot. In all forms. This product is very disappointing. I opened the package smelled them first, no truffle smell, I soaked them in water to rehydrate them, they had truffle no smell, tasted them, did not recognize any truffle taste. It’s all trickery.

Don’t waste your money into this kind of truffle. Quality is very poor and it’s not chefs grade. Avoid!

Great flavor, fresh, reasonably priced. A little goes a long way

These taste like nothing. Don’t bother buying them.

All I get as an answer is that they are black truffles and they are sliced and packaged in USA, and are considered organic by USA standards. Why can't you answer basic questions that are important to the consumer?!! If I could get those answers than I would have rated 4 or 5 stars. The truffles are well packaged EXCEPT DESCRIPTION. Truffle slices are clean and depending on the type may not be completely ripe. Dried pieces have an earthy scent. I re-hydrate mushrooms in cold water which prevents leather texture. After hydration, these truffles release a buttery/fruity/earthy weak scent which is pleasant. Taste is weaker than fresh but does add hint of flavor to recipe. My dog also recognizes these as truffles but the taste and scent is different from fresh truffles but maybe that is because I've never had this type of "black truffle" ??!! I wouldn't know as THEY DON'T TELL US WHICH FRICKIN "BLACK TRUFFLE" THIS IS. I would buy again if I don't find another source or better yet, I might just start dehydrating fresh ones myself... AT LEAST I WILL KNOW WHERE THEY CAME FROM AND WHICH TYPE THEY ARE!! If they ever answer those questions than I will know whether or not to raise up from the 3 star. These do not have any hint of "garlic" scent to them that I have smelled with fresh ones. But that might because I have only had a different type of black truffle, but don't know because THEY DON'T TELL US WHICH ONES THESE ARE OR WHERE THEY COME FROM. :)
