What the creator captured
Mark Wiens was captivated by the intense, garlicky aroma of fresh white Alba truffles unearthed seconds before being smelled. He concluded that the best way to enjoy these prized fungi is with simple, neutral foods like egg yolks and buttered tajarin pasta to fully highlight their perfume. His most memorable moment was experiencing the 'aroma paradise' of a high-end truffle harvest and tasting in Italy.
