Tartuflanghe: the excellence of Piedmontese truffles, between tradition and innovation

In the heart of the Langhe, a UNESCO heritage site and land of generous hills, Tartuflanghe was born, a company that has been bringing Italian truffle to tables all over the world for over 40 years. Founded in Alba in 1980 by Domenica and Beppe Montanaro, Tartuflanghe is now a benchmark in the international gastronomic scene for its quality, creativity, and respect for tradition.

Truffle, a family passion

The history of Tartuflanghe is rooted in a passion for catering and for the local area. Beppe, a professional chef, began bringing out-of-season truffles to the best Italian restaurants. From there came the idea of creating a line of truffle-based products that could preserve all the aroma and refinement of this hypogean fungus, even far from the harvesting season.

Iconic and innovative products

Tartuflanghe's catalog is wide and varied: from fresh truffles to the most creative gourmet specialties, all united by a single common denominator: the highest quality.

Among the most famous products:

  • Fresh black and white truffle: available in season, hand-selected by expert truffle hunters.

  • Truffle butter: creamy, highly fragrant, ideal on warm crostini or for creaming a risotto.

  • Truffle oil: made with natural truffle essence, perfect for flavoring raw dishes.

  • Truffle tagliolini: among the most beloved first courses, with a thin and aromatic pasta sheet.

  • Gourmet snacks such as truffle potato chips, which have gone viral for their elegance and intense flavor.

But Tartuflanghe also means experimentation: it was one of the first companies to introduce freeze-dried truffle and to use molecular technology to create innovative pearls, powders, and seasonings.

Respect for the territory

Tartuflanghe stands out not only for the quality of its products but also for its attention to sustainability and the short supply chain. The truffles come from controlled areas of Piedmont, and the company works closely with local truffle hunters. Furthermore, the use of natural ingredients and environmentally friendly production processes is at the core of the company's philosophy.
