Taming the Truffle Book
In 2008, we were honored to host the international launch of Taming the Truffle: The History, Lore, and Science of the Ultimate Mushroom (January 2008, Timber Press), "the most comprehensive practical treatment of this gastronomic treasure to date" at the 2008 Oregon Truffle Festival. The Festival keynotes were presented by two of the book's authors, Dr. Ian Hall from New Zealand, the leading researcher behind the success of truffle cultivation outside of Europe, and Dr. Alessandra Zambonelli, one of Italy's foremost truffle researchers.
