Hi Chocolatesuze - I'm sure I heard angels singing when i took that first sip of truffle veloute! The scallop entree and the truffle veloute would both run a really shut second! Even so, many questions remain unanswered and the administration practices of T. magnatum plantations are still to be better defined to also allow the taming of this truffle. There are meals and craft stands and entertainment and restaurants will function moderately priced truffle menus. When you buy fresh truffles regionally or on-line, you're going to get them of their raw form. The amount of truffle used will depend on the dish, and private preference. The black truffle is very appreciated for culinary purposes and is taken into account by the French people as the perfect truffle after their black winter truffle. Some folks love to serve strangozzi with a generous helping of truffle.
Benvenuto!
