A little bit of history!..... Eating truffles has always been a treat, Once it was a delicay that only the ruling class could afford and it was reserved for special occasions. During the Roman days there were a number of mushrooms cultivated and used as truffles, including the mushroom that is today known as the “desert truffle.”, coming from Asia. The enjoyment of truffles declined a great deal during the Middle Ages, but their popularity quickly rebounded during the Renaissance period. During that time , truffles were highly favored by royalty. These magnificent culinary delights remained a personal favorite of many European kings, as well as members of their courts and members of their families. One of the things that has made truffles so highly prized and so valuable throughout history is the fact that these unique and delicate mushrooms have typically eluded full scale cultivation. The original truffles were discovered growing wild, and those who picked them quickly discovered how wonderfully aromatic and fragrant they were. After those wild truffles were discovered to be such culinary delights, repeated attempts at agricultural cultivation were made, but for the most part those attempts were a failure. This has helped to create a certain mystique around the truffle, with visions of truffle hunters accompanied by boars out hunting truffles on a foggy morning. WITH US, YOU WILL LEARN HOW TO COOK SEVERAL TRUFFLE- RECIPES AND HAVE LOTS OF FUN!!!
