BBC Reel takes you to secret patches of Italian hillside to explore one of the world's best truffle-growing regions. The white truffle, the world's rarest and most expensive ingredient, goes on a long perilous journey before it ends up on the menus of some of the most exclusive restaurants. And rising demand for the prized fungus can sometimes lead to sabotage and murder.
