Chanterelles, something great to hunt outside of game seasons

[DrewR700]

Here are some pics of about 4 pounds of mushrooms I hauled out of the woods one day this week. Anybody else out there have any luck shrooming so far?

Found some this week as well. Hoping there will be more after the rain this week.

Those look great! This what I got all cleaned up. Should be popping up all over the place after all the rain and humidity.

Checked my spot today and there are a bunch popping up.

How are you cooking them?

I like to cook them in all kinds of stuff! A few things I've already cooked with them are burgers, I like to chop up the mushrooms and some fresh jalapeños and patty it all together. A nice medium rare chanterelle burger with a cold drink and a few buddies doesn't get much better.
Also like to cook them into a chanterelle cream sauce, pretty basic sauce I throw together with some heavy cream, beef bullion, chanterelles, red wine and a bunch of butter lol. Eat that over some venison with some fresh veggies from the garden and I'm set brother! There are probably about 15 other things I cook them into but those are two of my favorites. The sauce also goes really well with shrimp and pasta!
