To a chef, black truffles are the equivalent of an epic vista, and more. They are the fuel of inspiration, igniting the imagination not only to what is possible, but also to what has not yet been done. And yet there is more. What is a canvas and potential without paints to convey the vision. Here too, the humble black truffle outperforms all other ingredients. Somehow this highly aromatic, almost ugly flavour enhancer both contradicts and exceeds its looks. Ultimately of course, to appreciate the magnificence of this exceptional and extraordinarily enhancing ingredient, you have to try it. It must be experienced to be savoured. Both chefs and diners understand that black truffles are an adventure and a pursuit of this delicacy is worthy of the effort required!
