Black Truffle Melanosporum Brillât Savarin

Maison de la Truffe’s Truffled Brillat-Savarin is one of the most opulent cheeses you can serve at a festive table. Brillat-Savarin is first and foremost a triple-cream cheese: a soft cheese enriched with fresh cream to the highest fat content a cheese can achieve, giving it an almost scandalous creaminess and a buttery texture that melts on the tongue without resistance. It is the cheese of deliberate indulgence.

The Maison de la Truffe’s signature recipe takes it up a notch: the chef incorporates truffle-infused mascarpone into the dough and grates black truffle over it Melanosporum on and within the cheese. The black veins of the black truffle streak the ivory-colored cheese with a visual impact that speaks for itself. On the palate, the rich dairy notes and the woody depth of the truffle blend into a harmonious balance with remarkable length.

Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to fully develop. Served on toasted country bread or with fig jam, it makes for a cheese platter all on its own. It can also enhance a arugula and walnut salad, garnish verrines or party appetizers, or accompany a glass of Blanc de Blancs Champagne at the start of a meal.
