The black truffle in MasterChef
A few days ago the black truffle was the protagonist of the famous cooking show of TVE, MasterChef Spain; Eva González, host of the program, described it as “one of the delicacies of world cuisine”, and this conclusion also reached contestants after handling and cooking with it.
First of all the contestants received a master class by turolense truficultora Estefania Doñate and her dog Chuki, with which they hunted truffles and learned some of their secrets of conservation and kitchen; They were very surprised with the way the bitch “hunting trail” and pointed out the place where there are a copy; in our entry on January 13 this year, “dogs truffle hunters”, I talked about how our dogs look for truffle TrufaZero.
Subsequently contestant developed several recipes with truffles as protagonist: first ball soup pork jowls with truffle and crispy pork bacon with chickpeas and truffle cream; two seconds, trotters with turnips and truffles, plus pork ribs glazed with truffled potato parmentier; and two desserts, bread of truffled fig strudel apple crisp with chestnut cream and truffle.
They highlighted the powerful aroma and flavor of truffles, they did not know before, and how it enriches any elaboration.
From TrufaZero we want to thank the Asociación de Truficultores y Recolectores de Trufa de Teruel (Atruter)and the institutions of the region of Sierra de Javalambre Gúdar by this initiative that has enabled millions of Spaniards know this wonderful product.
