The very spirited canine promptly ran off into the woods, trying to chase down that crazy truffle scent. Nero had caught the scent on the roots of an oak, sending up clumps of dirt as Mr. Tarandek twisted a spade into the black earth. Tending a truffle orchard is as a lot of an artwork as it's a science and it is, most of all, an act of religion - it sometimes takes 6 to 12 years for the fungi to form truffles within the earth. One multimillion dollar orchard in Hext, Tex., is now being managed as a recreation preserve. Chuckey will not be the form of place one expects to search out the holy grail of the food loving world.
Benvenuto!
