Dried Chanterelle Mushrooms: 1.92 oz/54 g tube - Wine Forest Ltd.

Cantharellus formosus, Origin: Oregon, U.S.A.

Dried chanterelles are ideal for infusing chanterelle's lovely flavor into vodka, stocks, and sauces.  Dried chanterelles need to be chopped finely after rehydrating because they tend to be tougher than other dried mushrooms.

Wine Forest Dried Chanterelles have a mild, earthy mushroom flavor with a hint of dried apricot, and will rehydrate with the intensity of flavor dried mushrooms provide plus a wonderful meaty texture that make them ideal for incorporation into vegan dishes, soups and stews.

Soaking Time to Rehydrate: 30 minutes

Suggested uses for rehydrated Chantarelles: Soak, chop and sauté or roast to flavor soups, puréed soups, sauces, and stews Chop, sauté and add to grain dishes like pilafs, quinoa, barley and farro or bread stuffings Chop and add the sautéd bits to vegetables like cubed winter squash or cooked beans Roast with mild meats like pork and chicken.

Henry's Country Store Tip: Reserve the Chanterelle soaking liquid! It's literally liquid gold!! Strain through a fine mesh strainer and then use as a delicate mushroom broth in exchange for an equivalent measure of water when steaming winter vegetables or in bread stuffings. Add chopped fresh Pacific Northwest herbs and garlic, along with chicken broth or pan drippings, then reduce for an amazing drizzle over your favorite roast chicken or pork.
