The search for truffles is a hobby which evokes days immersed in nature and the magic of the forest. It brings back memories of those special moments of tranquillity and brings back memories of moments of joy that one enjoys intensely when they find this precious object.

The search for truffles is the story of man and his dog. In fact, when you have a dog and then you train him to look for truffles, between man and dog a very strong bond is established. This bond is strong like the bond between a plant and a truffle.

When you follow your dog into the forests, mountain paths and streams, the emotions you feel are magic. Seeing your dog run and witnessing his curiosity radiates an energy that captivates you.

During an outing of truffle picking all of a sudden your dog starts to run frantically as if he has gone mad, he sniffs the air and wags his tail then plunges into the plain (pianello??) (Totally hidden by the vegetation under the plants and symbionts (what does symbionts mean?)). ( not sure about this sentence?) When you are able to distract him away from his findings, the ground and air are impregnated with that smell.

The joy is immense when the hole where the dog has been digging at the bottom there appears a truffle and it doesn’t matter how big it is. To look for truffles you need two passions, a passion for dogs and nature and a passion for food.

Here is today’s story and the video Lorenzo sent us.

And then…Keep an eye on the competition. You can win truffles!
