It takes time to find new truffle areas. Sometimes you will stumble across them by chance but locating growing patches is usually the result of a strategy. This is ours.
1) Identify potential sites at home using maps to check altitude, tree type, soil, pH etc.
2) Visit these locations pre-season. Seeing places up close will give you more information on suitability as a truffle growth site.
3) Return to most likely looking spots during the season.
4) If you are unsuccessful, return later in the season. If you still have no luck, it might be a bad year. Go back the following season as areas will inexplicably take a break now and then.
5) If you are hunting summer truffles in warmer climates then you may have to move to higher altitudes as temperatures rise in July.

Truffle Burgers

500 gr. mince - a mix of beef, pork and veal is ideal
50 gr grated truffle
1 clove garlic grated - optional
tsp salt
black pepper
pinch of chili flakes
dash of olive oil
Combine ingredient well with hands but don't overwork. Form into a ball. Lightly oil. Cover with cling film/saran wrap and leave in fridge overnight for flavours to develop.
Cook outdoors if possible and serve on good bread rolls. Don't use condiments that would overpower the truffle, no ketchup etc. Avoid anything acidic. Probably best to stick to plenty of cheese. Grate fresh truffle on burger before serving.
