Wild Yellowfoot Chanterelles, 1 lb.

Yellowfoot Chanterelles are among an esteemed and exceptional class of wild mushrooms that stubbornly resist successful cultivation, meaning their brief season in the wild is truly the only time of year they can be appreciated. With a flavor profile that’s somewhere between the fruit-forward character of Golden Chanterelles and the earthier, umami-driven profile of Hedgehogs, these mushrooms are wonderfully balanced and versatile, though their delicate texture rewards a slightly lighter touch during preparation. If thinly sliced and used raw, their peppery taste provides a nice foil to their subtly fruit fragrance, with a rewarding crunch if picked at just the right time.
