where do you get 6oz of black truffles by saturday. just asking
found autumn truffles for 1/2 the price. good?
i have found (limited experience) thats less and better is more in the end so stick to the best you can afford, i have not bought below but they are respected by chefs

this guy is great, he is the one we bought great tuna, frog hollow fruit, insane montana lentils from etc, so i would trust him to have a more"hand selected" approach and i bet better quality and hence 2 x the $$

thank you for the suggestions. I found an on-line source before I had a chance to check out primizie. Adman and kristin just sampled some fresh dug fall truffles in italy, so we'll see what they think of the quality.
Let us know the outcome. Very curious.
italy is the bianco so VERY different
We hunted white truffles with the Presidente of the Local Assoziazione Tartufai. We did a quiet deal (diggers are not supposed to sell) on a nice sized truffle that we dug that day. The next morning we had it shaved onto scrambled eggs with some aged Tuscan Pecorino drizz'd with chestnut honey and arugula from the garden. Ridiculous.
