Little House in the Valley

K went mushroom picking with Opa today and brought me home a surprise : ) A big bag full of chanterelle mushrooms just for me. Yipee!

These are two of the largest ones and he wanted me to take a picture of him with them to share with you : )

They have the neatest texture on the underside of them. They have to be the best mushroom hands down *grin* I spent the whole morning wiping them clean to get the little bits of dirt and moss off of them. K's new at picking so he got them pretty dirty.

I put most of them in my food dehydrator so that I could store them easily and then I cooked up some for dinner tonight in the gravy for the roast. Another good way to store them is you can fry up onion then add you chopped chanterelles, cook them down till they are nice and soft, then sift in some flour slowly until it just soaks up the extra liquid and starts to get thick and then put them in freezer safe containers and freeze for instant use in gravies, stuffings or what have you : )

Blessings,
