One of our favorite memories together is Truffle hunting in Italy during our honeymoon. We were staying at a small hotel in Piemonte, and there was a booklet of fun things to do.
Naturally, we picked an afternoon of truffle hunting. Unsure of what to expect, we were led through private property owned by a husband and wife and their sweet German Shorthair Pointer named Zara. After several hours of talking, walking, and shooing Zara out of the way (they dig ferociously when they’ve found one), we had found several black truffles, and two small white truffles (this was in September, the beginning of the season). We were then invited into the couples home for some small bites topped with the truffles we had found. Italian hospitality knows no bounds… and our experiences there are what inspired Allora.
We are thrilled to be able to share this precious gift of the earth; musky, rich, powerful white and black truffles right from the source.
