Black Truffle Salt Grinder

Salt and dried black summer truffle, sharing one grinder and getting on famously. One twist and everyday cooking gets a touch of luxury.

This grinder from Ugo Tartufi's truffle range blends salt with dried black summer truffle, so the aroma of the truffle is released fresh each time you grind rather than fading in an open jar. Keep it next to the pepper mill and the pepper may find itself getting rather less attention.

The seasoning is savoury and gently earthy, with that unmistakable truffle note arriving at the end. It adds depth without taking over, which makes it easy to use generously.

Grind it over fried eggs, a rare steak or crisp roast potatoes, or use it to finish bruschetta with a drizzle of good olive oil.
