Chanterelle Mushroom Identification, Harvesting, Toxic Look A Like

Описание: The Chanterelle Mushroom, or Cantherellus spp., is one of the worlds most popular mushrooms to forage. With its distinct look and very unique flavor this is a rather easy mushroom to identify in the wild. We'll take a look at the mushrooms identification features, how to harvest it, and we'll look at the toxic look a like known as the Jack O Lantern Mushroom. The Chanterelle is very often found in old growth Oak forests usually in mid to late July, especially after a recent rainfall. This species we look at is a rather large one that, like all Chanterelles, has a feature known as false gills. These structures take the shape of gills but are usually rather shallow and are more like ridges or indentations running on the underside of the cap. The top of the cap is orange to yellowish orange and it will often have wavy margins. The underside of the cap will be whitish yellow then turning into a more orange yellow color towards the base of the stem. Harvesting them couldn't be any easier, as they just pluck from the ground with little effort. This mushroom will usually grow in small to large clusters on the ground but can sometimes be found growing solitary like you would expect from a Morel mushroom.
