The Producers: Nigel Wood (Truffle Melbourne) - flavour and romance
from Dirty Linen - A Food Podcast with Dani Valent · host A Deep in the Weeds Production
Nigel Wood grows truffles at Truffle Paddock, a small farm outside Melbourne where 600 trees coax Tuber melanosporum into existence. He also sources truffles to make products including truffle honey and truffle salt, and is the founder of the Truffle Melbourne festival. When Nigel bought his farm, he thought he might grow grapes for wine but the aroma, flavour and romance of truffles hooked him in and he became a pioneer in an Australian industry that’s grown exponentially in the past 20 years. https://trufflemelbourne.com Follow The Producers on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/producerspodcast/ Host Anthony Huckstep https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ Host Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Executive Producer Rob Locke https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork
