From a nutritional point of view, Black Garlic has a similar content of allicin, the active ingredient in White Garlic that imparts its benefits, but without the odour. Additionally, Black Garlic is rich in amino acids and has almost double the amount of antioxidants when compared to White Garlic. But that is not the whole story.
Black Garlic also contains an additional very specific compound called S-Allycysteine (SAC) in very high concentrations, compared to White Garlic which is water soluble and thus absorbed easily within the body. S-Allylcysteine has been shown to assist with the absorption of allicin. This makes Black Garlic much more effective than White Garlic for all the benefits mentioned above and additionally it is well tolerated by the digestive system so the chance of gastric distress is completely minimised.

One day they saw a majestic oak tree towering on top of a hill and decided to stop to look around. They found beautiful and fragrant truffles immediately and for all the days to follow, thanks to the florid hill.
From the flourishing lands of Umbria arise our truffle farms, real "oasis" that allow us to offer our customers only the best fresh product, from which we also get a large part of our prestigious preserved products.
Naturally preserved in their own juice, these luxurious truffles are great sliced or grated over dishes, minced and added to recipes or used as a garnish.
Perfect with pasta, risotto, eggs and appetizers.
