Truffles or tubers are a genus of fungi in the Tuberaceae family. They are located underground at a depth of 1 to 30 cm, so they are very difficult to find without specially trained dogs or pigs. The most valued type of truffle is the white truffle (Tuber Magnatum), followed by the black truffle (Tuber melanosporum). White truffle is one of the highest quality and achieves the highest price on the market. The price depends on the class and size of the truffles. The white truffle is compared to a precious treasure.

He is known and appreciated all over the world.

Truffles have a very strong and specific smell, something like garlic and old cheese together. About thirty years ago, the cultivation of black truffles began in France, and then in Italy. They are with us

people tried to grow white truffles, or even returned to the country white truffles that they had previously taken out to grow bigger but without success. Even in Australia, the inventors made an electric truffle detector, but the results of the operation of this device have never been published nor is the device for sale.

Several white truffles, weighing about 850 grams, were sold at a traditional auction in the city of Albi in Piedmont, Italy, for a staggering 75,000 euros. The truffles were bought via satellite by an entrepreneur from Hong Kong.

However, there are truffles in Serbia as well, and thousands of euros can be earned from them per month, because they are rare and extremely appreciated in cooking. Black truffles cost 50 euros per kilogram, and royal truffles cost several thousand euros for the same weight.

In the first century of the new era, thanks to the Greek philosopher Plutarch of Chaerone, brought the idea that the precious mushroom was born with a combined action of water, heat and lightning. From here, various poets are inspired; one of them, Juvenal, explained the origin of the noble mushroom as a result of lightning, thrown by Jupiter near an oak tree (the tree is considered sacred to the Father of Gods). As Jupiter was also known for its extraordinary sexual activity, truffles have always been attributed aphrodisiac properties.

Truffle hunting is above all a beautiful activity that allows a person to stay in close contact with nature and his dog. This research requires passion, consistency, technique and also good legs to keep up with the dogs. We have two breeds that have proven to be the best students in the truffle school. Labrador and Lagoto Romaniolo. Both are suitable for training in finding truffles. To have a good and reliable truffle-seeking dog, both must undergo complete training with a lot of effort and hours spent in the woods and in the field.

You can buy truffle products in this store. The gift shop has a plush box in which whole truffles, sea salt and a truffle knife are canned. You can also buy truffle oils and jars with spreads, Chocolate and truffle wine is a very nice gift that can be bought.

I'm not sure if we have truffles in Venezuela. Only the fact that the host tree for this delicacy is in Europe. I don't actually know truffles in people. And I would like to know how they are directly.

Well, I just want to know them, not buy them. They are expensive and with the difficult economic situation in my country today it is much more difficult to buy it. I am already a pensioner and without work. I only live from writing on this platform.

But I love plants and cooking!

The idea to write a text and do a little more research is the news that a murder has taken place in my country. They quarreled over a forest where there are truffles.

That's sad. People will fight over truffles. They see it as gold.
