The Alba white truffle: There’s something about holding one in your hand. Examining the knobby, misshapen surface still flecked with bits of dirt. Inhaling the musty aroma redolent of a damp forest. And imagining the subtle, vaguely garlicky flavor, all under the watchful eye of a merchant who is well aware that this rare tuber is worth a small fortune. Impossible to cultivate and increasingly rare because of changing climate conditions, the Alba white #truffle grows in the forests of the #Piedmont region in northernwestern Italy. There, trifolao (truffle hunters) employ specially trained dogs — like this one, photographed by @sw_photo — to unearth the fragrant #fungi. Autumn is the height of truffle season, and it’s also when crowds descend on Alba for an annual truffle festival, which kicks off this year on October 6. Few visitors are buying truffles by the pound. But merchants will still let you fondle and sniff their wares, which range from walnut-size tartufi that sell for under 100 euros (about $123) to grapefruit-size rarities with 3 or 4-figure price tags. #???
