Truffles
My friends at Delicious Italy report the official truffle season is about to begin with the Annual International Truffle auction on December 1 in Florence, Italy.
Rumours abound that a huge specimen was dug up near Pisa.
Mmm mmm mmm.
Don't forget the other kind of truffles - chocolate ones. And my easy, easy recipe for them.
Roasting update:
The wand works. If you prefer stuffing to dressing (that is to say stuffing inside your chicken or turkey) this is well worth the small investment.
