How Do You Find Them?
​
At Burwell Farms we use specially trained truffle dogs to find truffles hidden beneath the ground. Laddie (one amazing truffle dog) alerts his handler so his handler can do the rest!
how can i cook them?
Our truffles pair beautifully with rice, risotto, potatoes and pasta, and are heavenly when served with succulent meats and seafood. Truffles can be shaved or sliced as the perfect finisher to luxurious dishes and salads, and can be infused into oils and sauces that are truly divine.
