Every fall in the misty Langhe region, men and dogs set out in search of the tartufo bianco (white truffle) of Alba, one of the most highly prized delicacies of Italian cuisine. It is an ingredient in Piedmontese fondue, and is eaten with tagliatelle, polenta and many other dishes, accompanied for preference with one of the great red wines of the area, barolo , dolcetto , or even barbera . The tartufo is a fungus that lives underground whose fruit, in the form of a tuber, consists of a fleshy mass and whose color, perfume, and flavor depend on the tree with which it lives symbiotically, principally poplar, lime, oak, and willow.
