First, they purchase their truffles directly, so there isn't any middle man, which retains the costs low. I preferred this a lot and if I run out I might like to buy this again, assuming it continues to be on shelves. She removes a scale, then lays the pricey items out for him to select from. They then need to be carefully dug up. After we moved to France, we knew that we must go to a truffle market and get one for ourselves, so final winter we packed up early one freezing cold morning and drove for over 2 hours to a bit of village known as Saint Alvere in Perigord, which has a weekly truffle market through the months of December to February.
Benvenuto!
