Chanterelle Mushroom
Latin: Cantharellus Cibarius
Also known as the golden chanterelle it is one of the best-known species. It is orange or yellow; it has a fruity smell a touch of apricot and a peppery taste. It is considered an excellent mushroom.
Vitamins and Minerals
Low in calories, the chanterelle contains glutaminic acid which is known to reinforce the immune system and can fight cancer, infections and rheumatoid arthritis.
The fibers that it contains are in the form of cellulose, which helps maintain a healthy intestine functionality.
Vitamins A, B group, D and E are found, also Potassium, Copper, Manganese, Magnesium, Calcium, Zinc and Selenium.
Use and Preservation
Can be dried, but once rehydrated they become too leathery.
It’s better to powder them and use them as seasoning in soups or sauces.
Before freezing it’s better to steam for 10 minutes then freeze them. That way they will keep their shape and texture and won’t have that bitter taste after thawing. They can be eaten raw.
Available fresh from July through November.
