Truffle Hunting | Wild + Whole Sourced

Danielle visits the Pacific Northwest to learn about the elusive truffle, and their importance to the forest. She forages for wild, native truffles with Alana of Truffle Dog Company, and visits Cartwright Trufferie to explore cultivated Perigord truffles. What’s fascinating about this fungi is their unique aroma and the way it changes your perception of taste in common ingredients. Danielle and Simon cook with truffles in a variety of ways. Inspired by her trip, she takes what she learned back home to Texas and applies it to other common mushrooms.

Any outside activity you can do with your doggo best friend is a good day out in my humble opinion! I love watching a trained dog "Work"...the joy they get from "Doing a help a do" is the best thing ever!!!

[@macshatchetman13]

That last little tip about using dehydrated mushrooms as a ground coating for venison steak nearly made my heart stop. That's going on the menu immediately. Great episode!

[@jimkinney5661]

I am fortunate enough to cook with truffles frequently but the bread pudding is something I had never considered. I can't wait to try it.

[@Ryank211]

Danielle crushes it! More Danielle please!

Woot woot

[@johnhicks6367]

Definitely a scam

[@ItsFrankieFigs]

This show needs more marketing. I want to eat like this everyday.

[@scottleggejr]

The crazy thing about it is you're already out there, likely with a dog... Why not forage while hunting/fishing? If there's a trail to/from a trout pond, take the dogs and do both. The separation of the hunting, fishing, and foraging to me seems odd. I do them all at the same time.

[@stephanielegarda5443]

The host is adorable and a great chef, would love to see more of her show.

[@riverrat1149]

Watching that Italian truffle dog work was priceless.

[@jansebb]

l love how they show the passion for food and harvesting, hunting and fishing. how u can go out and get your own food, ether its hunting for meat, seafood, veggies and berries or mushroms.... just love that life style

[@TheArtisticGardener777]

As an avid mushroom hunter, truffles are the ultimate pinnacle to aim for! Some day!😊. Still have plenty of more common fungi on my bucket list(lobster, cauliflower, etc.), but truffles are the ultimate!❤

[@FaithRox]

Get a hound, it's pretty much the only way of doing it in the wild.

[@munnificent]

Watching you eat the Truffle Bread Pudding made me want to cry because it looked so good. What I want to know is that liqueur on top of the picnic table you and Alana are sharing infused with truffles too and where can I get a bottle? Lovely Video.

[@realmattsears]

I'm loving the show; keep up the great work!

When do we get a chanterelle video? They are in abundance here and I have yet to find a way to truly love them.

I am inspired to try looking for them. I am wondering if in the Dolomietes Alps you can find. 👋

Where did they find danielle she's awesome!

[@nickreynolds8391]

I heard her say on a podcast that they found her through her Wild & Whole blog. Pretty cool. She parlayed that blog into a really cool career!!

[@ritosa2372]

Come to Croatia. I will personally show you the biggest white truffle habitat in the world! 😁

[@ba1050]

Here in Oregon they are so close to the surface people would use only rakes to find them. Which is illegal if not on private land. I am in Eugene OR

[@scottleggejr]

Does oregon not have some kind of foraging permit/regulations?

[@ba1050]

@@scottleggejr yes. If not on your private land

[@ba1050]

@@scottleggejr and also there is a certain amount that you can harvest the considered for personal use you cannot sell it or anything like that and you don't have to pay for a permit for that one

[@scottleggejr]

@@ba1050 That seems reasonable and typical to me as compared to where I live. As long as it's not banned to harvest (within reason) natural resources and not commercialized, I wouldn't have any issues with it.

Like gold panning with your dog. Prob better payoff in most cases

Where's Rinella? Where's the hunting and the meat?

[@cliffisfree100]

“..empower us to develop meaningful relationships with the ingredients on our plate..” What does that even mean? Who comes up with this stuff. Food is food. You eat it so you dont die. A bit too philosophical there. 😂😂😂

[@scottleggejr]

“..empower us to develop meaningful relationships with the ingredients on our plate..” It's for hippies who shop exclusively at whole foods, but want to know what/where/how the food gets to the stores and secured supply chains. For example, look up a kuiu/sitka hunting pouch, then go look for a "foraging pouch" and then tell me how much a grocery bag costs - because they all do the same thing... Teva vs. Irish Setter vs Vans vs Sperry

[@HuntFishColo]

This attempt to broaden the audience has gone to far.

[@scottleggejr]

It's additive, not replace. You're a dummy if you spruce/sooty/blue grouse hunt and don't look for sheds and shrooms and squirrels while you're already out there. Or do I have to wardrobe change first? Sprinkle some truffle oil on the grouse, next-level. Duck/goose fat + truffle is where it's at.
