The European mushrooms are great so I really understand that you miss them. I can’t imagine paying so much for berries!

Australia is sadly lacking in the mushroom department. We get a lot of Asian mushrooms (shitake, enoki, black fungi, oyster etc) but hardly any European styles (like chantrelles, porcini etc). That’s one of the wonderful things about Sweden – great svamp. And also wonderful berries. I was in heaven picking wild blueberries and raspberries on the roadside. They cost about AUD$8 a punnet in Sydney, even in season! That’s around SEK44, EUR5 or USD$6!!!

I’ve never gathered chanterelles, but I have gone out in search of young puffballs and morels.

Nothing is as good as fried wild mushrooms with cream.

Hi Dagmar – lucky you! I had loads of yellow chantarelles when at home in August, but haven’t come across any (affordable) chantarelles in Edinburgh yet. I totally agree that the best way to eat these is simply fried, although chantarelle quiche is yummy, too..

Wow, you are lucky to find these mushrooms so late in the season. Here, in Ottawa (Canada) the mushroom picking season is over now. But I have tons of dried ones, including some of these beautiful trumpet chanterelles. Hope yours were good!
