Truffles.

What will not Luxury taste? Earth, sea and air
Are daily ransacked for the bill of fare.
GAY.

The truffle, like the mushroom, is a species of fungus, common in France
and Italy; it is generally about eight to ten inches below the surface
of the ground. As it imparts a most delicious flavor, it is much used in
cookery.

Being dug out of the earth, it requires a great deal of washing and
brushing. It loses much of its flavor when dried.
