Start the day at 10am at the Cour de Bonvillars. Meet Frank Siffert, Annie Riter and their truffle dogs for a 2-hour walk in the forest to harvest wild truffles. Along the way, you’ll learn more about the different types of truffle found in the Bonvillars and Jura region. Blitz, the truffle dog, will be in charge of the digging.
Back in Bonvillars, you can take part in a truffle cooking course, consisting of the preparation of an aperitif and a meal with the day’s harvest, which will be supplemented if necessary. The group and the instructors will cook together a meal comprising 3 aperitifs, 5 main courses, 1 cheese and 1 dessert, highlighting different varieties of truffle.
The course finishes at around 5pm. Truffle cavage and cooking days can be organised on request for groups of 6 or more via info@truffesuisse.ch.
