Our WINTER MUSHROOM SUPPLY - Dehydrating Wild Chanterelle & Hedgehog Mushrooms To Preserve For Years

- This is a great way to preserve several types of wild mushrooms. We dehydrate chanterelles and hedgehog mushrooms in order to have a year round supply of wild mushrooms. Drying mushrooms creates a shelf stable product that will last for years.

Love it! We have picked chanterelles here for the last 47 years. Long ago I would dry them in the oven but I have a dehydrator now. Ours come on later in the Pacific Northwest.
Awesome! This was a really early year for chanterelles in our area. They started at the end of June this year. They’ve been quite prolific though!
I love your stream it's so peaceful and beautiful
@3:29 that fungi is a formitopsis “red belted conk” unpalatable. So not one to go foraging for. But those chanterelle mushrooms look absolutely delicious.
Thanks
Some of the tastiest mushrooms around!!! 🍄 ❤💕
You know it coozin!
Your garden looks great and low maintenance too. Nice haul!
Very low maintenance, that's for sure, Jim! Cheers!
You guys are awesome 😎❤️
Thanks guys!
Nice! I found a lot of Chants but not the hedgehog mushies. Oh are they a relative of the Chants?
To my knowledge, they aren’t related. They do grow in the same habitat, and tend to grow further into the fall season than chanterelles do. Very tasty mushroom with no inedible look alikes.
Man, I need to get good at identifying mushrooms. I think we have a few patches of Chanterelles around here. I've seen the bright yellows with the grooves below. Great hunt, beautiful walk.
Sounds like we need to arrange a mushroom hike together to get you onto some wild edibles buddy!
@@Wilderstead that be awesome!!! Perhaps we could throw in a coho, laker, adventure into that too!
@@21Swayzee absolutely!!! And a river/lakeside feast of wild food!
That is the way to do it! If you are in town, and have some time to kill, we could do a beer walk on the trails here too...but, yeah the river lakeside feast sounds amazing!
Deal!
Nice! Never had either of those. I'm the only one in my family who like mushrooms... 😥
You better get hunting! You can always email us if you find something interesting that you might want help with identifying.
@@Wilderstead thank you! Never done a wild mushroom hunt. May have to try
Awesome mushroom haul! Wish I felt more sure about foraging for mushrooms,I did it as a kid with my mum,think they may have been boletes….🤷🏼♀️
Boletes are definitely a popular wild mushroom. We’ve had them a couple times, but we don’t really harvest many at all even though tons grow around here.
@@Wilderstead I’m not even sure that is what they were but I thought they looked familiar. My mum is from Germany (and lived in Poland too) so that is where she learned to forage.
Ahh yes, likely boletus edulis AKA Porchini. A very sought after wild mushroom in Europe, which also grows here in North America. The tastiest of the Boletes!
@@Wilderstead I just remember it was kind of yellowish in colour and spongy.
Have you considered seeding a few logs to keep near your garden.
We have considered it. But the abundance of mushrooms that grow wild nearby makes it a low priority project here for now.
Do you ever have any problems cooking with the dehydrated hedgehogs? I have read that they don’t rehydrate well and are only good for soups/powder after dehydration, but I really would prefer to keep them as whole as possible. Thanks.
I was wondering about this
Try saving your rinse water, then dump it in a moist dark spot. If you spore it, they will come lol!
We’ve done that in the past. But with so many wild mushrooms growing around here, we don’t put much effort into it.
would you ever get one of those freeze dryers ?expensive though, supose to keep most of the nutrients in what ever you freeze dry.
Possibly. It’d be hard to find the space for it here currently. It’s something we’ve considered though.
I was always told to give the mushrooms a flick to release any spores, is that not a regular practice ?
That’s a common recommendation. The same thing happens just through handling them, as well as using the mesh bags to distribute spores as you walk through the bush.
