truffles/ parasitic plants - the difference (Jan/28/2008 )

would it not be more interesting working with "real" truffels like T. magnatum or T. melanosporum or T. brumale....I would offer my kitchen to check if they are tasty

---

always thinking about food!!

---

---

I promise to become less a "Fresssack" and get involved in non-food discussions too

But have you ever tried tagliatelle with fresh truffels.....mhhh....cant wait for November

---

never heard of tagliatelle....i don't mind waiting until november as long as i'm able to get some

---

just to make you hungry.....follow me

hope november arrives soon...and I have to make a reservation at my favourite hotel and restaurant

---

i'm starting to look for web-sources on media suitable for parasitic plants

---

hey strawberry,
how's it going? i hope it's not too late to reply to this. have you found any way to grow the parasitic plants on media culture? i just saw this book on amazon, i'll try to check out later if it's available at the library, hope you find it useful:
