Saint-Marcellin with Black Truffle

The Saint-Marcellin with Black Truffle from Maison de la Truffe is the perfect pairing of two products that share a love for simple forms and rich flavors. Saint-Marcellin is one of the treasures of Isère gastronomy: a small, round, soft-textured cheese made from raw cow’s milk, with a natural ash-coated rind, measuring 8 cm in diameter and weighing 85 to 95 grams. When fully ripened, its texture is creamy, runny, and almost liquid in the center—a state of perfection that connoisseurs eagerly await.

For this exclusive recipe, La Maison de la Truffe incorporates truffle-infused mascarpone and black truffles into the dough Melanosporum grated. The mascarpone provides the richness and binding properties needed to ensure the truffle is distributed evenly; the truffle, in turn, imparts its aroma of forest floor and cocoa, which complements the raw cow’s milk perfectly. This is the Saint-Marcellin you serve at the table when you want the meal to leave a lasting impression.

It can be enjoyed hot or cold: place it directly in its eco-friendly wooden box and bake it in the oven at 180°C for 8 minutes, and it will melt and spread over garlic-rubbed toast for an intimate and luxurious fondue experience. The box is also microwave-safe.
