A day of Chanterelle hunting (Cantherellus cibarius) with my buddy Joe in early July. In the video I discuss in detail what types of areas to target for these beautiful and delicious mushrooms, and how to differentiate them from some of their look-alikes. We are hunting in New York State, but the areas I discuss are applicable to the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic, and Northeastern United States as well as Canada.

These are highly prized and sought after in Europe as well, it's a great joy to go out and discover patches of them. Can be quite abundant in places. I like Chanterelles (Cantharellen) better than any other mushroom. Just with a little onion, pepper and salt on a toast. Delicious.

You're making me hungry 😁 I would love to come hunt them in Europe some day, maybe when I retire.

It was a really fun day. I also found some edulis complex boletes the day of the vid that I believe to be Boletus variipes. I'm attempting to clone them now on MEA plates and they are growing, but very slowly. I'm wondering... were you Boletus rubriceps slow on agar as well?

I’m not a forager, but I have a friend who forages chanterelles here in Orange County, NY. It’s so cool. Whenever I am out golfing or fishing, I’m always looking for chanterelles, but I still have never found one. I look especially in the summer after it rains in places near water with plenty of shade and plenty of leaves/wood on the ground. Again, I don’t walk off trails or anything to look for em, but I def want to find some and eat em. Every time I think I find them they turn out not to be it. I send pictures to my buddy and he always says no. Loo

I'm sure you will find some eventually if you keep looking. I've hiked hundreds of miles over the years to find some of my good spots, but often you can find decent patches just off the trail or road. If not, I'm sure your friend will share.

If it smells like tire rubber, it's Red Stripe. Nasty shit, lol. Nice haul. I'm very much a novice at hunting mushrooms, I didn't think to find them this early in the year. Great vid, thanks

The first and only time that I ever went foragering for mushrooms was with my grandfather 80 years ago in the woods of Massachusetts.......He picked a bag full that I wouldn't even taste.......I always wanted to try picking mushrooms again until I found a book at the library that identified the different kinds of mushrooms and included one called ( the ANGEL of DEATH ) I believe......That's why I'll buy my mushrooms at the supermarket.......I really love the texture and taste.....

Nice that you got to get out with your grandfather at least once. There are of course mushrooms that are dangerously poisonous, but there are also quite a few species that are very easy to identify and delicious.

my technique is pull low and firm on the stem to remove them from the ground and then use a cigar cut to remove the very bottom with dirt clump on it... I've got a honey hole that pumps out pounds and pounds for about 5 weeks here in IL west of Chicago

They are definitely more predominant in certain areas. You can also check mossy areas along creeks and under Beech and Hemlock trees.

I fry my chanterelle with olive oil, salt and pepper then store them in the frig in a rubber made container. Excellent in salad.

What's the temperature in your area? It's still 90° in Southern IL so I'm not sure I could find them yet.

@RenegadeMushrooms 11 ай бұрын

They usually show up around July 4th here in NY, that's when we usually get our first 90 degree days here. I would guess you guys are a bit warmer than us, so they may pop up in June for you.

was reading the other day that pulling them & not cutting is beneficial to new growth the coming year. I have found zero near me.

@@RenegadeMushrooms online reports are finding them in the river woodlands of east toronto but haven't seen anyone finding them near me in the opposite direction..... if anything I'm sure there will be lots of Porcini this year at the end of the summer, since it was way to dry for them to pop up last year & i'm sure I can match your chanterelle weight in Porcini.

Cantharellus cibarius is a European species of golden Chanterelle. The species most common in the northeast U.S are Cantharellus enelensis, C. lateritius, C. appalachiensis and C. phasmatis. I'm not sure exactly which species you are finding here, but it could be either Cantharellus enelensis or Cantharellus phasmatis. Sorry if I'm being pedantic, I just find the specifics interesting.

@RenegadeMushrooms 7 ай бұрын

Good stuff 👍 In my ID books for North America (outdated I guess) it is listed as Cantherellus cibarius so that's what I've always gone with. Admittedly fungal taxonomy changes so often that I don't make a strong effort of trying to keep up with it.

@corvo9249 6 ай бұрын

@@RenegadeMushrooms Yea the North American species were found to be distinct pretty recently, C. enelensis only being discovered in 2017. They are all still be referred to as the cibarius group broadly for less confusion. I have the Peterson Field Guide to Mushrooms of North America, which lists some of the distinct species in North America, but still refers to them collectively as the cibarius group. The taxonomic changes are super complicated for sure but when you start to notice the intricate differences in species that seem so alike, it really makes me appreciate the diversity of nature. Plus with dna analysis I think the name changes will stick around for a while🤞
