Storing Black Truffles

I have a fairly large black truffle in a jar which i am using slowly in small slices or grating. What is the best way to keep it fresh now it has been opened? Should i refridgerate it?

You should... Take a clay pot, place miracle grow potting soil, and dig a hole about 2 inches. Place your truffle into the hole, and water daily.... Soon enough you will have many many baby black truffles!!

Ok now seriously, if your slicing it... well you take a small container of rice, and put the truffle in there.. usually the procedure is done for whole truffles, not sure about sliced.... Otherwise, if your not looking to use it soon, i have mine in oil, in the fridge... the rice you can leave in a cool dark place. be careful about moisture, it will grow mold fast.
