Experience Details
This immersive journey begins with truffle hunting, a quintessential Italian tradition. Guided by an experienced local, you'll delve into the lush forests that pepper the rolling hills of Piedmont. As you stroll beneath the arching canopy, breathe in the fresh air and feel the crunch of leaves underfoot while learning about the elusive art of truffling - the hunt for the 'diamond of the kitchen'.
After the hunt, it's time to put those truffles to good use. Make your way to a local's kitchen for a hands-on cooking class where you'll learn to prepare traditional Piedmontese dishes. Feel the joy of transforming humble ingredients - including your freshly foraged truffles - into mouth-watering cuisine. Create classic dishes like 'Tagliolini al Tartufo', thin noodles lavishly garnished with shaved truffles, or 'Tajarin', a rich egg-based pasta typical of the region.
Sit down to savor the fruits of your labor accompanied by a curated wine and cheese tasting session.
