Summary

Volatile compounds are very important for the aroma of white truffles. After studies on the evolution of volatile compounds at 0 deg C and at room temperature, the authors examine in this article the variations during quick-freezing. Oxidation and fermentation processes occur and result in a greater variety of volatile compounds as well as the disappearance of the compounds responsible for the typical flavour.
