mmmmmm, chanterelles!

I was thrilled to find a pound of lovely Canadian chanterelles at Costco yesterday (for $8.99!) and now I need to figure out their "highest and best use." A couple weeks ago I did pork medallions topped with chanterelles and shallots sauted and then mixed with creme fraiche. Does anyone have favorite recipes that showcase these fantastic fungi?

Re: mmmmmm, chanterelles!

Oooh...yum!

My favorite way to enjoy any mushrooms is to saute them and then make a mild cream sauce to put them in. It is creamy, yummy, delicious and filling.

You can make a sort of duxelles and fill ravioli with it too if you're so inclined, or put them into a risotto. Saute them in butter with a bit of garlic before you add them to anything, though.

Yum...

Re: mmmmmm, chanterelles!

Yum!

I need to head to Costco. I saw them in our local deluxe market for $25/pound and as much as I love em, I am not paying $25/pound. But 8.99 I can do.

A local restaurant here serves them in a light creamy butter sauce over scallops. Its divine!

Yum, yum, yum!!

I love them in a creamy sauce over seafood. But realistically, they're just yummy in any dish.

Re: mmmmmm, chanterelles!

I agree... yum... yum... yum.... this thread is making me want to run to Costco and pick some up! They opened a new Costco in my area (right behind the old Costco) - they'll be tearing down the old one and adding a gas station - they've now got a big walk-in refrigerated section for all the produce and really expanded what they carry. I'm sure they'd have the chanterelles ...

Yummm..... I like all the ideas ... scallops, risotto,
Doreen

Re: mmmmmm, chanterelles!

My current favorite breakfast is an omlette with sauteed wild mushrooms, goat cheese and carmelized onions. (either at home or at Coastal Kitchen on Cap Hill, where I discovered it)

mmmmm... hungry!
