Truffles in Iraq? Really?
-
I guess they won't have any truffle hunting pigs. I had no idea there were any. Looks like Mars.
Abu Jakka Farhan, a truffle hunter, is pushed in a wheelchair as he searches for truffles in the desert in Samawa, Iraq. Fetching its hunters up to $7 a kilo this year, Iraq's desert truffle is cheaper than its rarer European cousins that can cost hundreds of dollars or more a kilo. But with Iraq's economy in crisis, the local variety are a big help to foragers. Picture taken February 23, 2021. REUTERS/Alaa Al-Marjani
