Tuber melanosporum looks like an heap of mud, yet it's one of the most expensive foodstuffs. It is a highly appreciated delicacy which many wealthy gastronomes consider the king of all fungi. The truffles are shaved sparingly over the dish to add a savory flavor. Truffles are the fruiting bodies of fungi that typically form in a symbiotic relationship on the roots of truffle oaks, often less than 30 cm below the surface. It is almost impossible to cultivate truffles which grow randomly in certain regions. Since the elusive tubers cannot be seen, specially trained sows and dogs are employed to find them. The black truffle belongs to the Tuberaceae family of fungi whose ascocarps (fruiting bodies) resemble tubers and vary in size from that of an acorn to that of a large apple.
