The truffle....a shroud of mystery
Posted: Mon Jul 03, 2006 7:48 pm
I just read this article in the sunday times (yes that's right) about truffle hunting. It sounds SO MUCH fun but devilishly difficult.
Firstly, I think I need a spaniel. I have a tabby cat so she will do.
I also have to spray 'frozen truffle' in front of my stalion's nose.
Then, after a thunderstorm, I have to go into peoples gardens looking for oak trees with small patches of dead grass of circling flies.
Then I have to interrogate this woman about all the secrets of finding truffles.
WAY TOO MUCH EFFORT MAN.
Can someone give me a quick fix so I can get the pleasure of a fresh truffle without molesting my cat?
Many thanks.
