THE TRUFFLE COOKBOOK
What's small and brown, grows underground and smells ... amazing? In his second cookbook, Rodney Dunn, founder of The Agrarian Kitchen in Tasmania, celebrates the natural wonder that is the truffle.
In addition to over 60 recipes, Rodney gives a fascinating insight into the truffle industry and practical advice on buying, storing and (most importantly) cooking with truffles.
Harvested in winter, truffles have an intense earthy flavour that works particularly well with indulgent ingredients such as cream, butter and cheese. Rodney's recipes are lush and comforting – just the thing for cosy meals at home – and his approachable writing style makes them easy to achieve and hard to resist. Rodney is a natural teacher, and his produce-driven recipes are refreshingly simple and realistic for home cooks. Once you start experimenting, you'll be surprised at how many dishes can be enhanced by this inimitable fungus. As Rodney firmly believes, there is no such thing as too much truffle.
Rodney Dunn grew up on a farm in rural New South Wales. During his chef apprenticeship he worked under Tetsuya Wakuda at esteemed Sydney restaurant Tetsuya's, before moving into food media. He has since developed recipes for most of Australia's food magazines and worked as food researcher for theBetter Homes and Gardenstelevision program. In 2004 he joinedAustralian Gourmet Travelleras food editor, and continued in the role of contributing food editor for the next 11 years.
In a quest for flavour that only the simple life could bring, Rodney and his family left Sydney in 2007 to begin The Agrarian Kitchen in Tasmania, a farm-based cooking school in the Derwent Valley that allows Rodney to indulge his passion for all things food by growing fruit and vegetables, raising pigs, milking goats and keeping honey bees. And of course to share this bounty with his students in the form of cooking experiences, including butchery, smoking, wood-fired cookery, baking and preserving. Rodney has a deep love of cookbooks as is evident in his 800-plus strong library. In 2013 Rodney published his first cookbook,The Agrarian Kitchen.
