Chanterelles are an orange funnel-shaped variety of wild mushrooms. With their fruity, woody and spicy taste, they are gaining popularity for their flavor and versatility.
purchase guide
Look for mushrooms that have a vibrant golden or yellow color, with a firm and plump texture. Avoid mushrooms that appear slimy, discolored, or have a strong, unpleasant odor. Fresh chanterelles should have a mild, earthy fragrance.
COnsumptiOn
Chanterelles are one of the tastiest wild mushrooms. They are fragile and must be carefully washed in a large volume of water. They are a perfect accompaniment to meat, poultry, fish, omelets and pasta.
storage tip
Carefully remove any dirt or debris and place in a paper bag or lightly covered container. Store in the fridge and use within a few days for optimum freshness, as chanterelles are best enjoyed fresh.
