Hidden beneath the mossy forest floor, Pacific Northwest truffles are one of nature’s most elusive and extraordinary culinary treasures. Truffles grow underground, give no visible sign, and are worthless if harvested early — which is why the best truffle hunters in the world work with a dog.
This session goes inside that partnership: what a dog is actually smelling, how to read one at work, and what it takes to train your own. Includes live footage of working dogs, an honest look at which dogs make good candidates (hint: it isn't about breed), and what a changing climate means for where we hunt this season.
