One way to boost the savory notes of dishes at home is by using artisan truffle oil and sauces, and DyGen Food Ventures, Inc. offers one of the world's best. The White Truffle Oil (P 719/100 mL bottle and P 1,399/250 mL bottle) by Umbria Terra Di Tartufi are made with the freshest and finest ingredients from Valnerina, the so-called Green Heart of Italy, and contains absolutely no artificial colors, additives or preservatives. Each indulgent drop delivers a vibrant burst of deep, earthy and indulgent nutty notes of the prized truffle to elevate any dish at home.

The premium White Truffle Oil by Umbria Terra Di Tartufi is a lavish condiment made with olive oil, dehydrated Bianchetto truffle and white truffle aroma. The rich yet delicate notes brings the richness of truffle followed with a light pepper and garlicky finish that pairs well with pasta, risotto, chicken and seafood dishes like salmon or scallops. It even works on toasted bread. Try it on French fries and pizza and you'll immediately taste the richness of truffle with each bite. Mix it up with ketchup, mayo or hummus, or why not add a drizzle to soups and salads for that extra boost in flavor? All it takes are a few drops of White Truffle Oil to transform any dish at home. Elevate your movie nights at home with freshly popped crunchy popcorn drizzled with White Truffle Oil for an indulgent experience like no other.

Used as a finishing oil to enhance savory dishes, the White Truffle Oil is simply added to a dish near or at the end of preparation for that indulgent layer of flavor. Note that the potency of its flavors are heat sensitive and not suitable as a cooking oil. Think of it as your finishing touch to a comforting meal at home.

The Black Truffle Sauce (P 999/180 g bottle) by Umbria Terra Di Tartufi delivers a more pronounced intense and robust flavor made with fresh Champignon mushrooms, extra virgin olive oil, black olives and the natural flavors of black summer truffle. Simply heat on a pan with garlic and olive oil and add to your favorite meat, pasta, fish, potato, roasted vegetable or salad dish and discover how a few spoonfuls can go a long way in delivering rich and indulgent notes. You can also add a generous dollop of fresh cooking cream for even more indulgence.

Umbria Terra Di Tartufi also offers a 5% variant for even more intense flavors made with a high quality selection of mushrooms and special spice blend. The rich variant is perfect for a variety of both Western and Eastern cuisines, allowing you to explore new dishes right in your own kitchen, 

Umbria Terra Di Tartufi also offers the Original Truffle Sauce (P 519/ 80 g jar and P 759/180 g bottle) as an added option.

A favorite staple at home is Spaghetti with Meatballs draped in a rich tomato-based sauce. But adding just a few drops of the White Truffle Oil and a few dabs of the Black Truffle Sauce in the pasta sauce just changes this everyday dish with an indulgent layer of savory notes.

As the pasta sauce gently simmers on the pan and about to be served, add some Black Truffle Sauce and stir for the richness of truffle to be infused in the sauce. And before serving, simply add a few drops of the White Truffle Oil for that elegant finish. 

The tartness of the tomato-based sauce made even richer with Italian seasonings, oregano and basil is transformed with just a few drops of the White Truffle Oil and the Black Truffle Sauce adding an indulgent and flavorful depth to the dish. Tart, fresh and vibrant flavors followed by the deep, earthy and nutty hints of truffle, an everyday dish is elevated for a sumptuous meal at home. It really does make a difference, more so with familiar favorites easily prepared in the kitchen.  

The White Truffle Oil and Black Truffle Sauce allows you to be creative in the kitchen with its unique flavor and aroma without the fuss. Consider this as your new secret weapon in the kitchen.

Fire up the home kitchen for yet another new flavor experience from DyGen Food Ventures, Inc. with a 4,000 year old staple that nourished ancient civilizations...

Middle eastern in origin, Bulgur is a cereal food made from cracked parboiled groats of several different wheat species such as durum wheat. Bulgur is often used for soups, stews, salads, desserts and pudding in Middle eastern, Indian, Greek and Armenian cuisine. Often described as the 4,000 year-old Miracle Food, Bulgur offers countless health benefits that helps lower the risk CHD, stroke, obesity and diabetes as well as reduce weight with its nutrients and high fiber content. Bulgur is rich in folic acid, group B vitamins and potassium content with low glycemic index. 

DyGen Food Ventures, Inc. is the exclusive distributor of Duru Bulgur, known the world over for its delicious natural flavor from the use of high-quality wheat and a traditional stone milling process. The versatile grain can be used for a healthy alternative to the usual Rice Pilaf or soup with a healthier yet flavorful twist.

Soft and fluffy in texture that's almost similar to rice, a refreshingly healthy spin on Rice Pilaf is easy to recreate at home. Simply gather some fresh bell peppers, onions, celery, mushrooms and beef from the pantry or ref and you're all set for a new flavor experience with Duru Bulgur. A new year after all is best celebrated with new flavors.

You can replace boiled beef with ground beef, leftovers from the Spaghetti with Meatballs, lightly sauteed in olive oil with garlic, onion, bell peppers and mushrooms. Add the Bulgur along with some chicken stock and simply let it simmer for a few minutes. And even after enjoying a few bowls, you feel good right after without that heavy bloated feeling. 

After the bulgur absorbs all the liquid in the pot, just let it rest for a few more minutes and it's ready to serve...

Each spoonful of bulgur brings the subtle sweetness of bell peppers, mushrooms, onions and crunchy celery to the palate followed by the savory notes of the beef. The texture of the bulgur is pretty much the same with rice, but with a distinct and flavorful hint complementing the other layers of flavors in this hearty dish. Moist and bursting with flavor, it's a comforting dish without the guilt.   

A comforting bowl of soup makes cloudy quarantine days at home much more bearable, and adding Bulgur completely transforms the dish adding both texture and flavor. A simple recipe with carrots, celery and mushrooms combined with cream and bulgur becomes a meal in itself. 

And just like the Rice Pilaf made with Bulgur, it's easy to prepare and ready in just a few minutes. The thick and creamy broth brings a virtual hug to the palate followed by the fresh and clean notes of the carrots, mushrooms, celery and bulgur. And quite filling too. 

It's a healthy meal as well with rich flavors. Duru Bulgur is available in Rustan's Supermarket, Robinsons Supermarket, The Goodwill Market, The Landmark and All Day Supermarket. The healthy and versatile grain can be used for a variety of salads with honey and fruit or the traditional Tabbouleh Salad, as a cereal for breakfast and even savory dishes like Seafood Bulgur Paella, Chicken Bulgur Burger and even arroz caldo replacing the usual rice with bulgur for a healthier dish. And it's so easy to prepare. Give it a try with these recipes for Bulgur Pilaf with Meat and Cream of Bulgur Soup...
