The truffle and the matsutake mushrooms are the two most expensive mushrooms. Both known for their rarity, farmers have yet developed a way to farm these fungi.
One pound of matsutake and truffles can each sell for more than $1,000 per pound, which is usually the starting price.
Truffle hunting requires either a truffle hog or a special trained dog. The hog has that innate ability to sniff out the truffles, while the dog has to be trained. The unfortunate part of the hog. . . it has a tendency to eat the truffle once found.
