A Truffle
The truffle is a fungus that grows underground and not a tuber, as has
sometimes been imagined in the past.
In order to really get the most from it, it has to be treated properly: the following are some useful tips.
Truffles are always served fresh, and if storing for a few days is necessary,
they must be kept in the fridge.
HOW SHOULD TRUFFLES BE KEPT?
In the fridge at 3° - 6°C wrapped in a damp cloth and
shut in a screw-top glass jar. A fresh truffle can be kept
this way for around a week although storing for longer is not recommended.

8 pm - Chiesa di San Domenico
Guided tour of the church
HOW SHOULD IT BE CLEANED?
Truffles should be cleaned with a small stiff brush
under cold running water in order to remove all
traces of earth. Then dry carefully and eat after ten
minutes or so.

HOW ARE THEY SERVED?
A special truffle-slicer is required as truffles must
be sliced very thinly onto food. The thinner the
blade (just a few tenths of a millimetre is ideal), the
thinner slices and the greater the perfume.
HOW IS A TRUFFLE EATEN?
The White Truffle is a condiment or garnish, not
an ingredient, and is always eaten raw, never
cooked. It is at its best served grated at the table
onto tajarin egg noodles, fried egg or fondue.

This is the heart of the White Truffle Fair,
where the visitor first comes into contact
with the smell and feel of these mysterious
and fascinating mushrooms.
Every truffle on sale in the Market is first
controlled and vouched for by a special
Truffle Commission before being set before
the public. The Commission, a group of truffle experts, can also be consulted during the course of the Fair at a special
desk and forms part of a project whose aim it is to increase
awareness in all those areas where the public comes into
contact with truffles, in addition to protecting the interests of those who choose to buy a truffle or who have
encountered any problems.
Within the Market, all truffles weighing more than 20 g
are sold in a numbered bag that gives the buyer the right
to change his or her truffle if it proves unsatisfactory.
So, why buy a truffle at the Truffle Market?
• To be completely confident that your truffle
has been quality controlled by a commission
of experts who are also available for any enquiries for the duration of the Fair.
• In order to access expert assistance during
the buying process.
• To acquire the

The ‘AlbaQualità’ event is
featured within the context
of the White Truffle Market
and is a great opportunity for
all gourmets and visitors with
a passion for food to discover
some of the delicious foods and
wines made in the Langa and Roero regions.
The dozens of stands included in ‘AlbaQualità’ will be groaning beneath all sorts of goodies, including
handmade pastries and egg pasta, local
cheeses and salamis. The wines on offer
are those that provide a refined ‘supporting cast’ for the star of the show, the
White Truffle itself: for information on
the white truffle, we advise visitors to
refer to the group of experts from the
National Truffle Study Centre.
For all those visitors who are already
familiar with our local cuisine, a lunch
break in the restaurant area of the Fair,
(appropriately entitled ‘Oltre il Tartufo’
or ‘Beyond the Truffle’), will undoubtedly prove more than satisfactory...

This year’s Truffle Conference
bears the title ‘Pasta, Tartufo
e 2.0: la Comunicazione
Enogastronomica al Tempo
dei Food Blog’ (Pasta, truffles and 2.0:
Communication in the Era of the Food
Blog).
The White
Truffle brings
with
it
scents
from
the past,
stimulating our
curiosity
and those emotions that link us with the ancient rural
traditions that are our history and heritage.
But the Truffle also speaks to us through
the ideas it stimulates and the enthusiasm
it creates. The ‘Tuber magnatum Pico’ –
the white truffle’s full title
- has always occupied a special place
in man’s imagination, finally becoming a truly ‘glocal’ product of our
times, ambassador for its region and
country throughout the world.
In this era
of internet
via smartphone, the White Truffle is still
at home and entirely modern. In
fact, within the Truffle Fair, multimedia communication and virtual reality will be fully part of the
show!

Truffles &

The most important ‘Truffle District’ in the country is situated in Piedmont.
Here, in this precious region, a truly extraordinary food experience takes
place every year, with hundreds of restaurateurs ensuring that truffles arrive on their tables in completely pristine condition. This
small miracle is guaranteed by a charter, that of the
Truffle Club, ensuring that clients of all local restaurants, from humble inns to Michelin-starred
marvels, can rest assured that their truffles
are as perfect as they should be. Chefs of the
Truffle Club, the largest association of truffle
chefs in the country, are expert in the selection, preservation,
serving, matching and describing the qualities of the White Truffle.
CODE OF ETHICS
Restaurateurs belonging to the Truffle Club will respect the following code
of ethics:
• To serve only truffles of the best quality, possessing intense and pleasing
perfumes, adequate phase of ripeness and excellent state of conservation.
• To clearly print on an accompanying note the truffle’s species (for example, Tuber magnatum Pico or White Truffle of Alba).
• To include in their menu at least three or four dishes suitable for matching with truffles.
• To clearly describe to the customer the dishes
matched with truffles and the best ways of matching them.
• To clearly annotate all dishes available on the
menu in both Italian and English, plus German if
possible.
• To clearly show the price of all truffles.
• To grate the truffles directly onto the customer’s
plate at table rather than in the restaurant kitchen.
• To refrain from using chemical truffle-flavoured preparations in their
dishes.
• To put several good-sized and attractive truffles on show within the restaurant.
• To respect the official dates for the use of the White Truffle (available
from 1st October to 31st January in Piedmont).
• To allow clients to grate a truffle not acquired from the restaurant onto
their food if they so wish.
• To participate in truffle up-dating events in agreement with the Truffle
Study Centre.
• To undergo controls and inspections organised by an independent body as indicated by the Truffle Study Centre.

The 13th edition of the
International White Truffle of
Alba Auction will be held in the
Castle of Grinzane Cavour on the
second Sunday of November.
Every year the auction provides
a link between selected worldrenowned restaurants: this
year, between Hong Kong and the Castle
of Grinzane. In Hong
Kong, a public of
enthusiastic
and
generous gourmets
will be contending a
number of extremely
prestigious
White
Truffles of Alba. All
funds collected will
be donated to national and international
charities.
This year, as every
year, a group of personalities from the worlds
of sport, entertainment,
the theatre and gastronomy will take part in the event.
The Truffle Auction began in 1999, and is
organised by the Piedmontese Regional
Enoteca Wine Shop of Cavour, together
with the Region of Piedmont and the Town
of Alba.

Truffle of the
Year
Giacomo Morra, Alba Truffle Fair
promoter in the 1930s, invented the
tradition of sending the year’s best
White Truffle of Alba to a VIP chosen from the world of politics, sport
or entertainment. Personalities
of the past have included Rita
Hayworth, Marilyn Monroe and
even Winston Churchill. Roberto Ponzio, another famous truffle dealer, continued this tradition and during the ten years
spanning 1958-68 added HRH Queen Elisabeth and President Charles De
Gaulle to the list. Many other famous people have visited Alba in more
recent times to receive their White Truffle, including Luciano Pavarotti,
Alberto Ranieri of Monaco, Gérard Depardieu,
Sophia Loren, Alain Delon, Marcello Lippi,
Sergio Marchionne, Francis Ford Coppola and,

Street markets, with all
their colours, sounds
and throngs of people,
have always been a
part of Alba life and so
are a natural part of the
Truffle Fair celebrations.
All year long, on Saturday mornings, Alba’s main
streets and piazzas fill with stalls set up by hundreds of
travelling market holders.
This traditional street market
is further amplified during the
first four Sundays of October for
the period of the Truffle Fair with
a range of objects on sale that is
truly incredible. Local produce is
well represented, but visitors
will be thrilled and
amazed at what can be found in this
vast open-air department store.

Earth Market in Alba. Various themes in
food and wine will be examined during
the day and two tasting workshops will
be available for visitors to explore the
matching of foods with wine.
The Slow Food day will act as a sort of Truffle Fair preview and will also
include two ‘Laboratori del Gusto’ workshops for tasting some of the Slow
Food Projects own produce, offered by wine producers involved with the
Organisation and included in the Slow Wine Guide 2011.

Albaromatica
‘Albaromatica’ is a special
fair dedicated to aromatic and medicinal herbs and
spices which this year celebrates its 6th edition.
Alba’s historical centre and Piazza Risorgimento will be full to the brim with
stands displaying a multitude of different aromatic goods, ranging from liqueuers and wines – including the justly famous locally produced ‘Barolo
chinato’ – herb teas, sweets, pastilles and chocolates. Among newer items
will feature: herby breadsticks, focaccia bread and aromatic beers from specialist breweries. There will also be a chance to learn more about the use of
herbs with experts from the herbal remedies sector of Savigliano University
and a special workshop where the kids can play and learn how
to recognise fresh and dried herbs

Alba’s Master Butchers have organised special tastings of their local specialities: knife-beaten raw beef starters and beef stew cooked in Barolo wine, that
can both be tasted in the town’s Piazza Risorgimento on Sunday 9th October.
Piedmontese beef, and the Alba variety in particular, is justly famous for its
tenderness and exceptional flavour: this is a finely-textured, juicy beef with
just the right balance between lean fibre and fat content. This breed of cattle is
of medium build but very high-yielding, with a velvety coat and fine bones,
and produces a wide variety of prestigious cuts of meat.
In addition to the raw beef starters and
stew, visitors can also enjoy tastings of beef
sausages and ‘frisse’, a local meat-ball delicacy. Alba’s Master Butchers are
ready to share all their

On Sunday 25th September, Alba’s historical centre, from
Piazza Risorgimento to the end of the main street, Via
Maestra, will open its doors to this splendid wine festival, bringing a taste of all that producers have to offer
from both Langa and Roero regions. In fact, producers
will be present from all the two region’s wine villages
presenting tastings of their many wines and bringing
news of all that their various wine ‘communes’ have to
offer this autumn. Visitors can enjoy tasting grand reds
such as the world-renowned Barolo and Barbaresco,
plus many other noble varieties including: Nebbiolo
d’Alba, Roero Arneis, Barbera d’Alba, Dolcetto d’Alba,
Dolcetto di Diano, Dolcetto di Dogliani and many
more. Each visitor will be equipped with a special tasting
goblet with which to choose his or her favourite wines
to sample. During the day’s event, professional tastings
will also be held and there will be the chance to learn
more about your preferred wines, with particular emphasis this year on Barbaresco.

“foodies”
How to define a ‘foody’?
Well, it should be mentioned immediately that a foody is a person who
not only enjoys food, but who also likes to know how a particular dish is
prepared and a special ingredient distributed or produced. In fact, for this
special breed of person, the Truffle Fair provides much food for thought...
including the sensations to be enjoyed within the Truffle Market itself, the
experience of sensorial analysis and simulated truffle hunts in the company
of experts.
On Saturday 1st October, the Slow Food Projects and their Workshops will
be present within the Fair’s ‘Earth Market’ in Alba’s Piazza Pertinace and,
in the same Piazza, on Sunday 2nd October, a food market selling produce
produced in prison gardens and on land confiscated from the mafia will be
held.
Foody Specialities... on Saturdays

For just one day, Piazza Pertinace will be transformed into a very unusual street market, where visitors can find
a vast range of produce on sale, all originating from prison gardens and
workshops, or cultivated on land rescued from Italy’s mafias. Items will
include: wine, beer, olive oil, biscuits, pastries, honey, cheese, organic fruit
and vegetables, and a range of jams, but also handmade jewelry and clothing, pottery, wrought iron and other craftmanship. From mafia-free fields,
come pasta, lentils, chili peppers, olive oil and honey, all produced by the
young staff of the ‘Libera Terra’ organisation, with roots that go deep into
Italian culture that has freed itself from the chains of the mafia.

On Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th October, it will be time once again for
the ‘Baccanale del Tartufo’ (Truffle Bacchanale) and the ‘Borgo si rievoca’
(The Boroughs Remember) events, two very special occasions to get to
know more about Alba’s fascinating history and traditions.
The Truffle Bacchanale is a night-time event and this year will be set entirely
in the Middle Ages. Visitors will be plunged into the magical atmosphere
of an entirely torch-lit town centre full of the sounds and scents of centuries
past. Medieval music and entertainers will complete the scene. Tourists who
have participated in previous years’ events, tell of an emotionally inspiring and unforgettable experience.

Cavour’s Lang
Culture & exhi
bitions
a
The exhibition ‘Le Langhe di Camillo Cavour’ is distributed
throughout the eleven rooms of Alba’s exhibition rooms in Piazza
Medford and offers the visitor a fascinating panorama of the Langa
hill region during the period spanning the 18th and 19th centuries.
This intriguing historical era included the last years of the Savoy feudal
reign, the Napoleonic wars, Alba’s brief period as a republic during 1796,
the years of the French Empire and the Restoration, and, finally, the epoch
of King Carlo Alberto and Cavour himself. The historical context is juxtaposed with the area’s agricultural
and urban development as illustrated by original maps, paintings
and drawings and contrasted with
the way the Langa appear today.
The transformation of society and
its mores is well illustrated via
the use of period portraits, photos and ‘ex voto’ votive offerings. Cavour’s relationship with
the Langa, his home region, is
accurately explained, including
how the first Prime Minister of
Italy’s family came to possess
Grinzane, his work as Mayor
of that village as a young man
and his famous agricultural
endeavours. A final part of the
exhibition illustrates places in the
Langa where events occurred during the Risorgimento, illustrated
by portraits and thumb-nail sketches of the lives of heroes of that turbulent
and formative period in Italian history.

series of historical truffle-based recipes that accompany

Who really has any idea about how we should treat our planet? The
Footprint Ball installation was designed to try to come to terms with this
question. This work, that aims to create a two-way dialogue with the
town’s population, is composed of a steel sphere and an interactive totem
pole where citizens can answer a test on ecological matters. When you have
finished your test, Footprint Ball will utilise a system of lights and software

The Fe
Marathon
Featuring a reading
of Fenoglio’s novel ‘The Ambush’
The Fenoglio literary marathon will
take place on 23rd September from 6
pm onwards into the night. There will
be a mixed group of readers, including fans of Fenoglio from the general
public and famous literary figures.
Last year’s Fenoglio Marathon,
featuring the novel ‘Una Questione
Privata’ (A Private Question) proved
so popular that Alba’s Town Theatre
was invited to host a second edition
this autumn, featuring the novel
‘L’imboscata’ (The Ambush), which
Fenoglio began in 1959, a lesserknown work than last year’s book
yet undoubtedly just as fascinating. In this novel, the relationship
between Johnny, the “sentimental
snob” and Milton with his “complicated, unfortunate literary
love” is explored. The reading, together with
three discussion sessions based around the theme of
the Langa and its links with literature, will be chaired
by Giovanni Zucconi.
Last year’s Marathon included readings by Lella
Costa, Giorgio Conte, Gad Lerner, Carlin Petrini,
Gianni Farinetti and Gianmaria Testa.
This year’s new guests will include: Daria Bignardi,
Cristiano Godano, Guido Harari, Luca Occelli,
Gisella Bein and Beppe Rosso.
As last year, the Marathon will be opened and
concluded by the writer’s daughter, Margherita
Fenoglio.

The Fenoglio Walks are a series of literary itineraries dedicated to the writer
Beppe Fenoglio and represent an excellent way to get to know, at first hand,
the special atmosphere of the Langa
places that Fenoglio so accurately
instilled into his works. The Walks
are of varying lengths and difficulty,
the most arduous being those across
the Langa hilltops and the shortest
and simplest set within or around
villages.

Beauty Pageant
Alba’s historical beauty show has
been running for half a century.
It began as a part of the parade of
floats from the Langa and Roero
countryside that was held during
the first editions of the Truffle Fair.
It was a unique event in post-war
Italy, attracting a huge following to
Alba and its Fair and is still extremely
popular today. The Pageant is open
only to local beauties, with their ‘heart in the right place’,
who reflect the genuine and sincere loveliness of the land
where they were born and raised.
