Over the last 10 years, several great French and Italian chefs have put it at the centre of some of their dishes. Ten years. Just long enough for recipes and savoir-faire to have become part of the history of the truffle. But not so long that the truffle’s presence has become commonplace in restaurant menus or in the home.
