The truffle has carved out its niche in Poitou-Charentes, especially in the department of Charente. The original idea for this book, which reveals all the secrets about this tasty and rare mushroom, was to enhance the value of this booming agricultural industry through the profiles of truffle producers, truffle associations and the regional market in Jarnac, and also by promoting the extraordinary marriage between the truffle and the region's spirits.
A collection of gourmet recipes demonstrating the different ways in which truffles can be consumed adds the finishing touch to the book. These recipes are aimed at truffle lovers and can be easily recreated at minimal cost
Founder of the "Gourmets-Gourmands" association and the 'Auteurs et Gastronomie' festival, Jean-Pierre Rafenaud is more than an amateur chef.
Passionate about all forms of culinary art, he has created his first set of truffle-based recipes for this book.
