Truffles are a chef's dream ingredient. And that goes back to ancient Rome. Truffles, particularly the white variety, have been revered for their delectable pungent flavor for a thousand years now. But more than its culinary prowess, the oil from this rare fungus is excellent for skin and hair care.

What Are Truffles?

Truffle is a subterranean type of fungus that grows around tree roots. There are four types of truffles: black, white, burgundy, and garlic. The most common varieties are black and white, while burgundy and garlic are sub-types of black. 

Black truffles have a longer shelf life than white truffles. They are popularly cultivated in France. White truffles are the most expensive, particularly those that come from Italy. Garlic truffles have a somewhat smooth texture and a strong garlic aroma. Meanwhile, burgundy truffles have a brown interior with a sponge-like consistency. They slightly smell like cornmeal.

Truffles require specific weather conditions for them to grow. Unlike other fungi, this makes them difficult to cultivate. Black truffles thrive only in damp soil. Summers must be warm, and winters must be moderate for them to flourish. They cannot survive in extreme temperatures.

From truffles come truffle oil, a gourmet oil made by infusing olive oils with real truffles. White truffle oil reigns supreme in the culinary world, although black truffle oil has a more robust flavor and scent. Another great thing about black truffle oil is it is used to make high-quality skin and hair products.
