What is a Truffle ?

​​​

The Truffle is an underground fungus of the genus Tuber and belonging to the Tuberaceae family: it is born and lives underground and develops near the roots of some species of forest plants and shrubs, for example, the oak, the holm oak, the hazelnut, the hornbeam and poplar.

The shape depends on the characteristics of the soil in which it grows: a soft soil will favor the growth of a spherical-shaped truffle, while a hard, stony soil will favor a lumpy shape.
