My experience with chanterelle mushrooms only occurred once.
My neighbor hit 80 years old while I lived next door. His wife had lived in the town all of her life. They made regular camping trips to Moyie Springs, near the ID/MT border and always seemed to return with chanterelles.
Morels seemed easy for me to identify. I have just looked at some pictures of false morels and I am still reasonably confident in saying this. When they showed up with some woodchips that I used to cover periphery paths in the community garden patch I had once — I was delighted. They seemed to appreciate secondary pine forest growing near where I used to live near Pend Oreille Lake.
Beef Stroganoff was probably a perfect use for the chanterelles!

I consider successfully identifying and harvesting mushrooms to be magic.
I am no mushroom wizard and I am content to let the grocery store tell me which ones I can eat.

This mushroom dish looks fantastic. I wish I knew how to tell the chanterelles from the rest. I'm afraid I would make a lethal error.

Chanterelles are one of the easiest mushrooms to identify. I only know how to positively identify chanterelles and oyster mushrooms so far.This mushroom dish looks fantastic. I wish I knew how to tell the chanterelles from the rest. I'm afraid I would make a lethal error.
