Grade A dried chanterelle mushrooms (girolles) from France.
The chanterelle mushroom, also known as girolle (Cantharellus cibarius), grows from the end of May in clear oak forests in temperate regions. Cantharellus cibarius is often found among moss.
It measures between 5 and 10 cm, and can be differentiated from other chanterelle species by its funnel-shaped cap measuring 2-8 cm wide, and the deep folds under the cap. It is creamy-white or pale yellow in colour. The chanterelle is slightly soft with a wonderfully fruity scent and flavour.
The chanterelle is a delicious mushroom that makes a great addition to an array of dishes. Dried just after harvest, our chanterelles retain all their flavour and can therefore be stored for a very long time. Simply rehydrate for around an hour to restore the appearance and flavour of the fresh mushroom and cook however you please !
Plantin (our supplier) have a France/ world wide reputation for selecting very high quality mushrooms and all this range are of supreme quality.
Perfect for risottos, stocks, stews and sauces.
Dried chanterelle (cantharellus cibarius) mushrooms.
Storage:
Store in a cool dry cupboard.
Shelf Life:
1 Year
Rehydrate dried chanterelles for 45 minutes in tepid water and carefully rinse them a few times to remove any grit.
When it is hydrated, the chanterelle gains 3.5 times its weight. 10 grams of dried chanterelles are therefore equivalent to around 35 grams of fresh chanterelles.
You can keep the water you soak them in to add further flavour to your dish too!
