Chanterelles are one of the top three mushrooms sold worldwide. Their peppery taste sings enough to stand alone but is versatile when added to dishes like pasta. Chanterelles are also some of the most expensive culinary mushrooms. It all comes down to the fact that they can’t be grown commercially, so your chanterelles at the farmer’s market have likely come from professional foragers. Wild chanterelles grow across continents, from Europe to Africa to North America, but if you head out this fall, practice ethical wildcrafting and leave more for the forest floor.
