Tuber Magnatum, commonly known as the white truffle, is a highly prized fungus found primarily in the woodlands of Italy and France. It grows underground in symbiosis with the roots of certain trees, particularly oak and hazel. The white truffle is known for its strong aroma and unique flavor, making it a sought-after ingredient in gourmet cuisine. Harvesting Tuber Magnatum is a delicate process, often done with trained dogs or pigs that can detect its scent. This truffle typically matures in the fall and winter months, and its rarity contributes to its high market value, sometimes reaching thousands of dollars per kilogram.
