The white truffle, considered one of the most exclusive and prized ingredients in the culinary world, takes center stage at Harry’s with the 12th White Truffle Festival. This year, we celebrate the arrival of this culinary treasure with a menu designed to highlight its distinctive flavor and complexity, available until December 31st.
The Mystery of the White Truffle
What makes the white truffle so special? This rare fungus, known as the “diamond of the kitchen,” grows naturally in specific regions of Europe, primarily in Italy, during the autumn months. Its growth depends on precise climatic conditions, soil quality, and its interaction with trees such as oaks and hazelnuts.
The process of obtaining white truffles is as peculiar as it is fascinating: carefully harvested by expert hunters with the help of trained dogs, these culinary gems are celebrated for their unmistakable aroma—a blend of earthy and umami notes that elevate any dish to the next level.
Exclusive Festival Creations
At Harry’s, we honor the uniqueness of the white truffle with a thoughtfully curated menu where this ingredient shines in every dish. Each creation stands out not only for its flavor but also for its impeccable presentation:
Truffled Salmon Tartare
We begin the experience with an appetizer that combines crunch and creaminess: a salmon tartare served on a crispy rice base, accompanied by citrusy yuzu notes and spicy truffle aioli. Each bite offers a perfect balance of freshness and depth.
Kansas City-Style Smoked Short Rib
For the main course, we present our Kansas City-style smoked short rib, coated in a house-made truffle BBQ sauce that enhances the complexity of the cut. Served with buttery mashed potatoes, the addition of white truffle transforms this dish into an unforgettable experience.
Truffle-Flavored Crème Brûlée
The perfect conclusion to an exceptional evening comes with our Crème Brûlée, a classic dessert reimagined. Fresh peaches and caramelized hazelnuts are paired with the subtle and distinctive flavor of truffle, ending the menu with elegance and sophistication.
