Overview
Jump into incredible truffle hunting adventures with a professional. Discover the mysterious world of the pearl of Istria. Get to know the recipe for the best dish with truffles. Typical Istrian pasta "fuži" with truffles, a glass or two :) of excellent Istrian Malvasia wine, and good company ... priceless! If you stay in Piran, Portorož, or Koper it is almost a "must do".
Culinary chefs highly prize the Istrian truffle. Let's uncover its secrets: how it is searched, why they use dogs for hunting, what varieties of truffles we know, why the price is sky-high, the history of (forbidden) hunting in Istria, and other facts.
After the exhilarating hunt, your experience culminates in cooking a traditional Istrian pasta “fuži”, lovingly enriched with fresh truffles. Paired with a glass of Istrian Malvasia you will learn how to recognize fresh truffles from its imitations ... and enjoy under the pergola of the Istrian homestead.
Come as a guest, leave as a friend.
