That's quite an amazing patch of chanterelles! The season has been good here too. Maybe just a little harder to find here in Northern California but still plenty for our dinner plate. I can't believe you passed up those boletes though. We eat those too! We prepare our chanterelles and other wild mushrooms just like you do. In our stew. And in our scrambled eggs, in our quiche and in our omelets. But you have a pizza oven! We love chanterelle mushroom pizza! Have you tried them that way?
The mushrooms you are looking for are called Liberty Cap and they grow on grass slopes, not with trees. Depending on the soil conditions some may have a stronger '' flavour '' 😉 so you may just think about boiling 20 or so mushrooms per person to start with. After an hour or two if you feel you could handle a stronger '' flavour '' you could double up next time. 😃 Enjoy your mushies. XXX
Ahhh I watch your videos very randomly, but I love how happy you Finns get when you find a mushroom or berry spot. I find mushroom and berry picking terribly boring, but thanks you now I know that I am not legally allowed to eat anything since I am not 100 % sure about anything... I think I'm only lik 90 % sure about blueberries. 😁 I love cooking and eating mushrooms though, but I rather pay someone else to pick them.
Great discovery. It looks like many interesting meals can be cooked with them. Now I see why Lauri is getting pudgy, Anni is a terrific cook. Loved the cat in the bag. Keep loving life. ❤️👍
Here in Kentucky USA we call those....Hickory Chickens in the early spring...We bread then in meal and flower and fry them....Thay are really good to eat.....Thanks for sharing your cooking.....! PS..Such beautiful Cats WOW l have some to....!
Those mushrooms spawn every year more or less at exactly same place. If I could suggest , definately try doing that risotto. Give it couple tries to perfect it, you will not regret it. Secret (or maybe not that secret) tip to cook risotto, serve it bit "watery", last liquids should be absorbed to rice on table. Have a perfect 2021!
OMG! That many chanterelles would be about $1,000 here in Toronto! I am so jealous - they are delicious and I can't afford them! You should have made some Rib Eye steaks and fried some on top! MMMM!
Anni. You need an outrou. I liked the video. But it eneded so abruptly. "This was all from the home" would be lovely. Or something like that. Still, I loved it. Keep it up Anni. Show us more of your life in the woods.
they Mushrooms usually pop up late July Early August, Here in Denver We would do a Perseid Meteor Shower Campout up in the mountains, in the area we went to, Quail mountain there was a small spring in a rill and all along the stream in the grasses and moss were every colour and shape of mushroom to imagine. We didn't harvest any.
I really enjoy your videos Anni!! I am actually learning to write and speak finnish (suomen mestari) I love your culture and country :) Thanks for sharing those videos :) Cheers from CAN.
Picking them on someone else's land would not be allowed without permission from the land owner as those are seen to belong in the tree. Same is true for every species in genus Polyporaceae. Every man's right have their limits when it comes to the products of forests. They could gather them from their own land if they found any, though.
@@Saareem thankyou for the clarification , i do not know the rules of finland. i have quite a bit of chaga on my land i have also found it on public land. whether it was legal for me to take on public land i do not know, but judging by the amounts i find, people in vermont are not harvesting it. i only harvest large chagas because the larger the fruiting body the closer the tree is to death ,and then smaller fruits will be available in the future when they have almost finished killing the tree. i think perhaps the tree belongs to the chaga.
Here in south Estonia it is quite common mushroom.But still hard to find, because the forrest is full of people, picking mushrooms and berryes, like blueberryies, cranberryies. The demand is high and if somebody finds a field like Anni did, then it is gebt family secret. Oh and Chanterelles are called here rooster mushrooms(kukeseen), because the edge looks like a roosters head.
Here in NW Montana we have Morels, Shaggy Manes, Icicles, White Matsutake, Lobster Mushrooms, Boletes, and Puffballs. I like the Morels the best of all of them. We pick many pounds of them every year. A couple of years ago we picked over 300 pounds of them after a big fire here and we sold many of them to buyers for restaurants. We ate a lot ourselves too.
Kiitos! Pretty good, we only had one perkele and nobody died. What you're picking is just the fruiting body, the majority of the organism is underground.
What an awesome spot. Good find! I usually fry them with lots of butter. Dice the chantarelle not smaller than 1cm pieces. Put them in a hot frying pan, not scorching. Let the water come out, when there's little to no water left in them, Add a fair amount of butter(more than you think) and a bit of salt. Fry it until it's just starting to go kinda brown-ish. Now you can decide if you want to add cream and a little bit of flour or go with them as is. Put them on a toast and enjoy!
I pick chanterelles every fall, they are soo good just sautéed with butter salt and pepper. I cut them up and freeze on cookie sheets and then bag them up frozen to use throughout the year in soups, stews, gravy or whatever. Great video 👌
Best mushroom there is! Shame that they shrink so much when they are prepared 😔 tried to go out to pick them but only find yellow leaves, why is their season when there's a lot of other yellow stuff on the ground?! 🙆♂️
Hey Anni! Looks good and tasty! I was taught as a kid to cut the mushrooms off near the base leaving the bottom (connected to the mycelium) behind - this was supposed to let them grow back in the exact same spot next year (experiment maybe?).
Well... i think it has been said before, since the liver is the first organ to fail, if you mess up the mushrooms... one of the best mushroom you can find in Finnish forest is "Korvasieni" [ear mushroom] and its leathal.... if eaten raw, it will make your liver explode.... so you need to boil it briefly like 3 times, each time rinsing them with clean water between the boilings... i have never made this mushroom my self, but i have eaten a soup made out of it, and its... Really good! but you kinda have to trust the chef/cook, because you might drop dead if they have messed up -.- Edit: If i did my wiki right, this is the "korvasieni" in english: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyromitra_esculenta
Ooh, very nice find! In my country these things literally translate to "fox mushrooms". Often times we dry the amount we can't immediately use up and they will still be alright in soups and stews in the winter.
I miss living in a small town where the newspaper was really thin, you can read the whole thing with a coffee and get on with the day, city newspapers are too big lol!
Heippas täältä Paimelasta. Askolta ja Pimu-hauvvalta. Mulla on öljytön kompura missä hyvät suodattimet kun tarkotettu hengitysilmakäyttöön.

Those mushrooms usually only come up in the summer time around here in Wisconsin. Amazing they are up so late in there in Finland. I have never seen such a big patch of Chanterelles like that.
Now all you need to do, is to find the P. azurescens, P. semilanceata, and P. cyanescens - Psilocybin! Now that's what I call a "TRIP to the mushroom forest!"! LOL!
Just curious, which tree species does it live with in symbiosis there? I was expecting to see birches around the chanterelles, and that's exactly what happened.
The word he said stepping up the hill " percola " at 1:08 ? I used to hear my grandmother from Finland say this but always first " Voy satana " . I haven't heard these words in 50 years ! I wonder what these two words mean ? Greetings from Canada .
Yesterday I found a few fly agaric mushrooms (the red one with the white dots) while wandering through the woods. From one I ate a tiny piece, just for the taste of it.
@@mil-fpv4931 Nope :D I think I must eat a lot more than the tiny chunk of it. Also they are way less hallucinogenic when they are fresh, because the decarbolization to Muscimol only takes place during drying or heating them up.
@@mil-fpv4931 While I left the fly agaric in the woods, I have some of the other brand You mentioned in my stash xD Trust me, I know what I'm doing...usually...most of the times xD
1. Learn all the poisonous mushrooms beforehand. 2. Stop picking mushrooms because there are almost everytime (deadly) poisonous siblings 3. Buy them from the shop again That was our mushroom experience after attaining a professional "field training" for mushrooms in our area
