They did it in Autumn, when grapes had been harvested and wheat had been sown, to earn a little more money and, possibly, to make up for a bad year.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">You couldnt improvise yourself a trufle hunter: you needed good stamina, for the long and tiring walks after a hard days work, but also courage, to walk alone at night through valleys and hills with the danger of bad encounters.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3788 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cascinabricchetto.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/foto-3-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"Trifulau &amp; dogs\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\"><\/strong><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><strong>Hunting truffles<\/strong> is a way to live moments in complete freedom, deep in the silence of nature, in a time of year when the colours and smells of autumn are enveloping; it\u2019s gratifying to see the dog \u201cat work\u201d, admiring his skilful way of moving about sniffing the ground, selecring every scent and readily answering orders. Its a precious thing, being able to share all this with an inseparable friend!<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">The <strong>Trifulau<\/strong> is a lonely and very reserved figure, who shares a very close bond with his <strong>dog<\/strong> and with nature. He becomes one with his dog while hunting, and every time they re-enact an ancient ritual made of looks, signals and incitements that culminates in the irrepressible and liberating outburst of joy when a truffle is found.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-3789 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cascinabricchetto.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/foto-5-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"Trifulau &amp; dogs\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\"><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">The <strong>Trifulau<\/strong> usually moves by night, for various reasons: the weather conditions are better for hunting, the dog is less distracted, and the darkness and fog help hide from prying eyes. When the ground is covered in snow, he takes long detours to his secret places, leaving misleading trails in other directions for other hunters to follow and sometimes even simulating a find near trees that don\u2019t hear truffles at all!<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">He walks with great agility and skill, overcoming every kind of obstacle; he knows every ditch and slope by heart. He knows when<strong> truffles grow<\/strong>, and the trees that bear them; how to tram his<strong> dog<\/strong> and how to reward it and, finally, he knows that a <strong>good truffle<\/strong> is worth a fortune!<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><em>Natale Romagnolo<\/em><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3786 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cascinabricchetto.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/foto-6-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Trifulau &amp; dogs\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Langhe in Autumn: colours and scents An idea of the colours can be seen in photography ,whilst unfortunately for now, the scents can not be appreciated , even if the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":26460,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[123],"tags":[145,146],"class_list":{"0":"post-28256","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-blog-de","8":"tag-food-de","9":"tag-langhe-piedmont-de"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Langhe in Autumn: white truffle and truffles hunter<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Langhe in Autumn: colours, scents and white truffle.
