Robert Chang, founder of the American Truffle Company, warns that most truffle oil lacks real truffles, instead using synthetic chemicals that diminish the taste of authentic truffles.
Real truffles contain over 300 flavor molecules and should ideally be eaten fresh within five days to fully appreciate their complex and rich flavors.
Alana McGee suggests allowing fresh truffles to infuse in other ingredients in the refrigerator to elevate the flavor profile of various dishes, enhancing the culinary experience.
While once dependent on pigs, truffle hunting today predominantly involves trained dogs, making it a more efficient and legal pursuit compared to past practices.
