The white truffle growing in the woods of Alba, Piedmont, Italy, is the rarest and most expensive truffle in the world. This truffle is bigger and more fragrant and flavorful than other types, with a hint of nuts and sweet garlic. To grow, it needs compact, marly soil and trees like chestnut, oak, poplar, and linden. Join us as we follow a truffle hunter for a day and learn the best way to store truffles and which foods they pair best with.

    without a doubt, claudia is one of the best hosts on youtube.
  • I highly recommend watching The Truffle Hunters. Very charming documentary.
  • Ciao Claudia! I'd love to see some of these Italian regional eats focussing on Sicilian food - Arancini and Cannoli in particular!

    For all the people watching and thinking like they want some truffle. A very approachble and savory meal: An easy recipe: (not healthy but delicious) You'll need: Salsa tartufa (is often mixed with mushroom) Butter Cooking cream Grated Pecorino cheese Pepper (as in salt and pepper, the spice not the vegetable) Pasta of choice, Fuži if you can find it Melt some butter (don't let it cook so no bubbling) and add the truffle salsa. Go easy on the butter Once temperature is good add some pepper and add the cooking cream. Slowly add the finely grated Pecorino to taste and untill the sauce gets a nice structure. That's it! Add it to the pasta and enjoy! Make sure the sauce doesn't bubble and that there isn't too much butter and cream added, but also not to little

    I’ve never had truffles but I want to eat it before I leave earth 😁❤️
  • @JohnHausser
    The pasta guy is right ! Truffle oil is the most overrated thing 😂 So many restaurants/food companies have tried to fool people with it 😭

    I wana see Claudia do the North American vids (moreso than the ones that currently do them). She seems to have such a zest for life, and comes across as authentic in her vids. Anddd shes a cutie <3
  • @sutats
    Mmmmmm...I love truffles, the chocolate ones too.
  • Bella idea quella di associare le informazioni sulla provenienza e tipi di tartufo ad una ricetta apparentemente semplice. In realtà la tua bravura e la tua competenza è tale da poter combinare tranquillamente non solo ingredienti superbi ma soprattutto provenienti da territori disparati....... Che dire della scelta della pasta pugliese.....porta con te ovunque le tue radici
  • @blaster36000
    I remember that one show where this lady treasures truffles so much, she dons a large sable fur coat just for the truffle hunting occasion...
  • @lilitharam44
    I've never had truffles, white or black, either but just like Italy, they are on my top ten list of things I want to see, go to, or eat!
  • @sailorarwen6101
    I’d be curious to know how much that little plate of pasta with those shavings of truffle would cost.
  • @Treonic
    Food is the best way to connect and have a true cultural experience and we are loving it .Love from Treonic
  • 10:39 Knowing how to handle cutlery and knowing how to eat Italian pasta is important...Good time to learn with the Italian Chef by your side...It is just an observation from an Italian person.
