In Poitou, journalists from France 3 followed a group of several dozen hikers behind truffle dogs. The harvest was successful.
They went hiking in the morning mist, with a goal that was ultimately not so sporty. Forty hikers, with the common point “everything that is part of the pleasures of life”, said one participant. An hour later, the plot of truffle oak extends in front of the hikers. A paw from the truffle dog is the sign that a nugget of black gold from Poitou is hiding a few centimeters from the surface. “It’s black with ribbing and white veining”describes a hiker.
The ground conceals some very beautiful specimens, with for example a truffle of nearly 80 grams, with a very pronounced perfume. To crown the outing, a gourmet meal awaits hikers in the village hall. On the menu: sucrine soup with truffles, brouillade also with truffles, and a dessert: brioche and its custard, both also flavored with truffles.
