On this truffle tour in Cadenet, experience foraging for the elusive black fungus against the backdrop of the Luberon.
Truffle Hunting Tour
At the scheduled time, we will begin our experience at the Les Pastras de Cadenet farm.
We will first visit an authentic Provençal truffle plantation within the Luberon Regional Natural Park. During the tour, we will observe truffle dogs as they search for the highly prized black mushrooms known in gastronomy.
While walking with the dogs to search for the sought-after "black gold," we will learn to distinguish the Provençal variety, Tuber melanosporum, from other truffle varieties cultivated in Asia, and uncover the history of smugglers associated with this fungus known for its high prices.
As the tour progresses, we will receive tips on cleaning, storage, and cooking techniques for truffles. Properly handled, these mushrooms can enhance many recipes. We will explore these culinary delights together.
The 3-hour tour will conclude with a tasting of truffle hors d'oeuvres paired with organic truffle oil. Optionally, you can enhance your experience with a pairing of Provençal champagne.
