There are some good fall episodes to come, but I did choose to stop filming episodes as the season began to slow down so that I can get to the morel footage sooner. There is a lot to pick through 😅
I have eaten both yellow and white Chantrelles and I have to say I enjoyed the white ones much more. I had a visit with Randy in early fall and he cooked us some white Chantrelles and they were the most I have every enjoyed this type of mushroom so far! Probably ones he picked in the summer flush, Thanks Randy. Keep up the good work you guys, these videos are awesome ❤
the chanterelles you guys pick look like you get a lot more weight per pick than ours in the UK! interesting you are drying them. here in the UK we pick cantharellus cibarius, but although it does dry well, it does not rehydrate in a satisfactory way. we have some colour variations from yellow, to orange and sometimes pink, but they are all classed as cibarius. but I think that may change in the future. you guys seem to have a number of different species. are you mainly picking Cantharellus formosus and subalbidus? do you get cibarius too? I guess the extra 'meat' to the mushroom means that you can rehydrate them?
We are mostly picking C. formosus and C. subalbidus. In the patch we go to in the next episode, we get a lot of C. roseocanus aka rainbow chanterelles, but it's a lot harder to tell the difference on camera compared to in person. The rainbow chanterelles tend to be the nicest variety because they are so dense. With the chanterelles, they take much longer to rehydrate, I usually do them overnight in the fridge. The firmer mushrooms do tend to rehydrate better, and the rest go into chanty powder.
I have been told to cut the mushroom at ground level; never pull them up so the roots are taken from the ground. Because, leaving the stems' roots allows the mushrooms continue to grow in the area. Is that not correct?
That is not correct. You can safely do either without harming the living organism in the ground (mycelium) The mushrooms don't actually have roots. Luckily, there have been some great scientific studies regarding cutting/pulling to show that you can safely do either. Because of that, I do whatever is easiest on my back when I'm bent down, haha.
Thank you! Dried chanterelles take a while to rehydrate, have you tried giving them a few hours in water before cooking? Best piece of advice I can give is to use very low heat, dry air - if you go straight onto the heat they will become leathery.
@scottinman5219 we are always willing to help fellow foragers. Lots of air flow and try drying just firm fresh chanterelles... we also find slicing helps... ask if you need more help
I have hiked on the Island in this weather and the air is so amazing! I would not go out there in that wind!
Beautiful white chanterelles!
Rainy day gold

Love your videos! They are very educational for me and your editing is great. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing!!!!
Sent my family the link to your shop. Let’s hope I get some mushrooms for Christmas! 🙂
Huge harvest-so pleased for you all. I don't think I've ever seen anyone so wet that hasn't jumped in water.
Agree... cold water running down my back, absolutely soaked.
We had to keep a good pace to avoid hypothermia
Haha, yeah, it was a bit damp out! Almost could have gone picking in a wetsuit 😅
wow
Hello from Beautiful British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦
Hello Phil & Randy🎉❤🎉
Hey Marguerite!
Hello, hope you are well.... what a year we have to share... stay tuned
We are still getting chanterelles on our land across the strait from Vancouver Island! What a great season. ❤️🌲🐿️🍄
It has been a great year!
Here in western washington I found some spots with so many chanterelles you could fill a dump truck. Unbelievable year. Massive size to.
The bomb cyclone completely changed the local forests, so many blow downs .
Yeah that bomb cyclone was something! You should have seen the mushroom drying tent dance!
ฝนตกคุณยังเก็บเห็ดอย่างเมามัน เห็ดก็เยอะ คุณยังทำวีดีโอให้ฉันดูอีกแม้มันจะยุ่งยากก็ตามโปรดดูแลสุภาพด้วย❤🎉🎉🎉fc Thailand

You're in a honey hole of chanterelles.

No, they are just cutting them for the sake of keeping them cleaner.
Cutting or pulling makes no difference for the micelium
@@northernwildharvest Good to know, thanks!
Have you got any sasquatch near sightings stories to tell.
Sasquatch Chronicles
No.. it always turns out to just be Randy..
Lol@@northernwildharvest
@@lynnmcinnes9810 how many bigfoot sightings were actually just mushroom pickers deep in the woods trying to not give away their patch or be seen 😅
@northernwildharvest ha ha lol 😆 🤣 😂
Which taste better between white and golden chanterelle?
Personally i prefer the whites.
Love all your videos! I found that Chanterelles rehydrate really chewy if dried. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks!

@northernwildharvest Thank you! I get so many that I have to dry most. This will help!
