Discover the coveted truffle, the gem of the culinary world, beloved by chefs, cherished by gourmands, and adored by foodies everywhere. Truffles grow deep within the soil in the forests, woven beneath the roots of magnificent oak, poplar, chestnut and hazelnut trees. Hard to find and even harder to cultivate, these delicacies are "hunted", sought out by specially trained dogs who sniff the tubers out and guide the truffle hunters to their prize. The most pungent varieties grow during the winter when conditions are just right - not too cold but not too warm, and not too dry but not to rainy either! This temperamental tuber is beautifully pungent and fabulously aromatic!

Truffles And Mushrooms Questions and Answers
Q:Why are truffles so expensive?
A:They are expensive and coveted because they’re not only available for a short period of time, but are also extremely hard to find. Since they grow under the soil, they can’t be seen, but rather are hunted with highly trained dogs who sniff them out. Once harvested, they lose their potency quite quickly, which means they must be rushed to market and shipped overnight to their destination.
Q:Are truffles mushrooms?
A:Technically, no. Both of them are part of the fungi kingdom, but they're not the same species — mushrooms grow above ground, while truffles grow underneath the soil. Think of them as tasty cousins.
Q:What do truffles taste like?
A:Intoxicatingly delicious! They are often described as earthy and musky when referring to Black truffles, or garlicky when talking about White Alba. Like wine, the flavor can vary with terroir, like the type of soil and trees.
Q:What is a truffle?
A:A truffle is a type of - delicious! - edible fungi that grows underground in a symbiotic relationship with tree roots – without trees, there are no truffles.
