Black truffles are called "scorzoni" [skowrzohnee] as refferred in the video.
This video in Italian language from Casa Tocci shows a very simple way of preparing black truffle tarts.
If you do not know Italian, I have written down here the recipe for you:
Set a handful of black truffles (dry ones, not the pickeled ones in a jar) and set them in a glass of "Vino Santo" (a sweet Tuscan dessert wine made from raisins and aged two years in small barrels) overnight.
Get some good quality pork lard and slice it thinly. Wrap each truffle with the slice of lard and then wrap the whole thing with a layer of tin foil.
Set the wrapped truffles under hot ashes (do not set besides live charcoal!!!) in your fireplace and leave there until soft (depending on the teperature it may take two hours).
That's it! Enjoy!
