Title: Chantrelle cooking ideas
Post by: Blacklab on September 18, 2019, 08:07:04 AM: Dana got a few from a lady at work. Now she doesn't know how she wants to cook them. I suggested soup, saute, and fried. Not interested, now I'm lost what's left :dunno:

Post by: merkaba93 on September 29, 2019, 05:38:51 PM: So I was lucky enough to find a bunch of chanterelles. Also currently taking vacation to salmon fish. So I had time to cook, made a meal with chanterelles every day. Here is what I did....

Roasted Mushroom Soup
Chanterelle and Pheasant Gnocchi
Razor Clam and Chanterelle Pasta
Potato and Chanterelle hash with eggs
Hot and Sour soup with Chanterelles
Grilled Pork Chop with Mushroom Beurre Blanc and Chanterelle Orzo
Venison Chanterelle Stir Fry
Liver and Onions with Chanterelles
Shrimp Chanterelle and Saffron Risotto

However, like what others have said, definitely dry saute them first. Then add your oil or fat after they have released their extra liquid and you've strained it off.

Store them in a paper bag until you get home. If they're really dirty, wash them off. If not really dirty, use a brush for the few spots you need to get the debris off. Put them uncovered in a large bowl in the fridge and they can dry for a couple of days if needed. When they are dry, the remaining needles will just fall off if you shake the bowl. When cooking wet mushrooms, as stated above, dry cook them until the excess water has evaporated. If there's a lot of water, you can always pour some off. But remember: there's flavor in that water.

half olive oil, half butter (2 oz ea)

Cut the shrooms in 1/2" thick slices and sauté in the butter and oil until the liquid is gone and the bottom of the pan is glistening with the sugars from the shrooms. Add salt, garlic powder, and pepper and stir/flip/whatever. Finish with 2oz of sherry or sherry vinegar, deglazing the pan and reducing liquid to nothing again. Eat them. Add them to salads, pasta, fish, meat.

Clean them well , beat a few eggs , and dredge them in egg , and dip in seasoned bread crumbs or flour... Treat them like fried chicken... My mother loves to batter them in krusteez fry mix... Also great sauteed.. When we get a bumper year, we sauteed and froze them for future use.
