A general term for truffles in cooking. They are used to flavor sauces in French cuisine, in egg dishes such as scrambled eggs, and as an accompaniment to chicken and wild poultry dishes. They are also enjoyed in truffle salads, along with endives. Foie gras pate is especially famous for always having a black truffle embedded in the center. It is known as one of the world's three great delicacies along with caviar and foie gras, and is extremely expensive. Truffles from the Périgord region of southern France are considered the best quality, with Nérac, Martel, and Cahors also known as high-quality truffles. Italy's Piedmont truffles are white in color, and their flavor is just as good as that of the black French truffle, truffle noir. They are used raw, grated, and in high-end Italian cuisine, such as pasta, risotto, and egg dishes. Summer and winter truffles are also widely eaten. Truffles are prone to insect infestation and spoilage, so they are only available raw in the areas where they are produced, but a small amount is imported to Japan in winter. Canned truffles are generally used as the ingredient.
