Our WINTER MUSHROOM SUPPLY - Dehydrating Wild Chanterelle & Hedgehog Mushrooms To Preserve For Years

This is a great way to preserve several types of wild mushrooms. We dehydrate chanterelles and hedgehog mushrooms in order to have a year round supply of wild mushrooms. Drying mushrooms creates a shelf stable product that will last for years.

Love it! We have picked chanterelles here for the last 47 years. Long ago I would dry them in the oven but I have a dehydrator now. Ours come on later in the Pacific Northwest.

Awesome! This was a really early year for chanterelles in our area. They started at the end of June this year. They’ve been quite prolific though!

@3:29 that fungi is a formitopsis “red belted conk” unpalatable. So not one to go foraging for. But those chanterelle mushrooms look absolutely delicious.

Nice! I found a lot of Chants but not the hedgehog mushies. Oh are they a relative of the Chants?

@Wilderstead 2 жыл бұрын

To my knowledge, they aren’t related. They do grow in the same habitat, and tend to grow further into the fall season than chanterelles do. Very tasty mushroom with no inedible look alikes.

Man, I need to get good at identifying mushrooms. I think we have a few patches of Chanterelles around here. I've seen the bright yellows with the grooves below. Great hunt, beautiful walk.

Sounds like we need to arrange a mushroom hike together to get you onto some wild edibles buddy!

That is the way to do it! If you are in town, and have some time to kill, we could do a beer walk on the trails here too...but, yeah the river lakeside feast sounds amazing!

Awesome mushroom haul! Wish I felt more sure about foraging for mushrooms,I did it as a kid with my mum,think they may have been boletes….🤷🏼‍♀️

@Wilderstead 2 жыл бұрын

Boletes are definitely a popular wild mushroom. We’ve had them a couple times, but we don’t really harvest many at all even though tons grow around here.

@bettinah.7429 2 жыл бұрын

@@Wilderstead I’m not even sure that is what they were but I thought they looked familiar. My mum is from Germany (and lived in Poland too) so that is where she learned to forage.

@Wilderstead 2 жыл бұрын

Ahh yes, likely boletus edulis AKA Porchini. A very sought after wild mushroom in Europe, which also grows here in North America. The tastiest of the Boletes!

Have you considered seeding a few logs to keep near your garden.

@Wilderstead 2 жыл бұрын

We have considered it. But the abundance of mushrooms that grow wild nearby makes it a low priority project here for now.

@MiscMitz 2 жыл бұрын

Nice! Never had either of those. I'm the only one in my family who like mushrooms... 😥

You better get hunting! You can always email us if you find something interesting that you might want help with identifying.

would you ever get one of those freeze dryers ?expensive though, supose to keep most of the nutrients in what ever you freeze dry.

@Wilderstead 2 жыл бұрын

Possibly. It’d be hard to find the space for it here currently. It’s something we’ve considered though.

@sherripalmer6909 2 жыл бұрын

Try saving your rinse water, then dump it in a moist dark spot. If you spore it, they will come lol!

@Wilderstead 2 жыл бұрын

We’ve done that in the past. But with so many wild mushrooms growing around here, we don’t put much effort into it.

@HollerHunter Жыл бұрын

Do you ever have any problems cooking with the dehydrated hedgehogs? I have read that they don’t rehydrate well and are only good for soups/powder after dehydration, but I really would prefer to keep them as whole as possible. Thanks.

@ArtichokeHunter Жыл бұрын

I was wondering about this

@TheCanadianBubba 2 жыл бұрын

I was always told to give the mushrooms a flick to release any spores, is that not a regular practice ?

@Wilderstead 2 жыл бұрын

That’s a common recommendation. The same thing happens just through handling them, as well as using the mesh bags to distribute spores as you walk through the bush.
