After a long hike through rough terrain, I finally found some! They were nestled deep within a costco for 15.99 per pound! Thanks for the cool video!
😁 Ahh, the value of Internet tutorials is confirmed!
Great video! Just a heads up, all of the studies show that pulling a mushroom out of the ground has no bad effects on the mycelium. In fact, they found more mushrooms returned the following year where the mushroom was pulled from the ground vs cut. The idea of cutting a mushroom to protect the mycelium is a wives tale that hipsters made up.
Was going to comment the same and add "mushrooms don't have roots". Please, if you're trying to educate people on mushrooms convey the right information... Or at least say the correct terms instead of using misleading words to dumb it down for Dick and Jane. I'm hoping she was just trying to dumb it down and I hope she really does know mushrooms don't have roots.
@@freejojoey530 hey man, she probably doesn’t know they don’t have roots but that’s literally okay lmao
@@jared3519 If you're an educator, you should be educated in what information you're passing on... Otherwise, you're participating in idiocracy. Sure it's ok to not know fungi don't have "roots", but it's sort of an insult to the educators who invest a lot of time, energy and funding to help people understand the world of fungi when someone puts out an "educational" video passing on misinformation. I'm not knocking on her novice skills as an amateur mycology enthusiast. I was merely pointing out we should all make an effort not to participate in the dumbing down of the human tumor on this planet.
@@freejojoey530 I would argue that it's not misinformation at all, and claiming it is such is useless pedantry. Roots and mycelium serve most of the same functions in much the same way and they have a similar appearance, the main difference being one is found in plants and the other in fungi (other differences derive from the differences between plant and fungal biology). Language works and has always worked by analogy, and ergo, there is absolutely nothing wrong with describing mycelium as the "roots" of a fungus.
@@Wlerin7 mycelium is the vegetative state of the organism, not the root. But, hey, call it whatever the flip you want, eh? I'm not here to argue, I simply was giving advice to someone who is obviously trying to be an educator; and passing on misinformation as an educator is IMO a "faux pas".
Pro tip; instead of cooking off the liquid, pour it into a cup as it comes out at intervals. Then use the mushroom liquid along with water to cook your risotto.
Awesome! I'll try that next time!
I do this all the time and it is 100% a great tip. I usually make mushroom Gravy.
Chanterelles and most other shrooms reabsorb their liquid within 5-10 min of cooking so unless someone is cooking in water vs. pan frying, I say just wait and let them reabsorb their liquids.
@@MKpixelfan this! I was going to say, if you wait a little bit, they soak all that loving goodness back up! *Don’t drain!!**
Gordon doesn’t drain his shrooms 🤷🏻♂️
Plastic bags are not recommended for mushroom picking, Wicker basket are more suited for the job (they allow the spores to come out of it during the searching inside of the forest, since it has holes)
I've got a rat terrier named Rosie, she started finding mushrooms when she was a tiny pup. She loves to find Chanterelle's, Murells, Chicken of the Woods, and Oysters. she also finds Truffels. It weird, I didn't teach or train her for this, she just does it on her own. But when Rosie is in the woods, your going to get mushrooms well, and Squirrels.
o.o makes me want a rat terrier.
That's awesome 👌
Can she differentiate good and bad mushrooms?
@@Atheneummartialarts She seems to. She only took me to Jack-o-lanterns once and by passes toxic ones.
You are a lucky man. My dog just stares blankly at me.

Mushrooms do not have root systems and are simply the fruit body of a huge network of mycelium under the ground. It is not necessary to cut them and you can just pull them out. It is advantages to know when to cut them to keep clean and tidy and when to pull them for the most food possible. The ONLY reason to cut them from the ground is to stay clean!
As I said above - cutting them off vs twisting them out from the mycelium will eventually kill the whole network in that area. Once you twist them out, then you can cut off the soiled end.
Great video. Just a tip though to new mushroom hunters: Chants don't actually have gills, they have 'false gills' which are actually more like ridges. Smooth chanterelles actually have none, or minimal, ridging. The toxic lookalike that does have actual gills is the jack-o-lantern (that mushroom has the true gills, not the false ones or 'ridges'). Cute video though. Chants are my favorite. I am lucky enough to live in an area where we have found a couple spots that produce so many chanterelles that we can't ever actually harvest and process them all. So I've shared the locale with a couple trusted family members. For some reason it didn't produce last year (2020, go figure!), but the year before we ended up with a good 20 or so lbs of chants, and that was after-processing weight, and we had so many that we didn't even harvest as much as we could've! Already this year we are finding them popping up this first week of July, so it looks like a great season. I plan on stocking for the winter, but some people also will purchase them.
willing to share your spot with an 'OG' from around here, that would like to resume my ...forest treks after nearly 20 years of a majior health issue?
I'm always impressed by mushroom hunters. I'm so terrified of getting it wrong.
Chantarelles are pretty easy to identify 😊
Best mushroom sauce on the planet:
Cut chanterelle mushrooms and onion into small pieces, cook them with good quality butter. Add salt, pepper. After about 10 min add cream (not sure what you call it in the USA, but it is milk with high amount of fat, usually 35%, and you make whipped cream out of it) and melted cheese :D Again, not sure how it is called in the states, but it is a soft cheese that you can smear on bread. Cook for 1-2 more minutes and it is done. Enjoy ;)
We call it whipping cream.
It's called "heavy cream" in cooking. Often labelled as whipping cream.
Agreed...cut or pick is no better or worse to the Mycelium. You do less damage by not stepping carelessly or roughly disturbing the ground near the mushrooms. Also, the Chanterelle has very little spores. So if you want to help them in following years, cut those older ones you find into pieces and spread them around where you've found them. This better serves them and you, as more of them should return to the same spot.
amazing Video I use to pick them at my Grandma's place it's so awesome to pick Chanterelles one of my favourite mushrooms
Sweet. We pick a lot of mushrooms too. I actually use the same knife as well.
excellent year for Chantrelles here in Germany, about to cook up some I just picked.
Loved your video! Gonna try it out this season. I know a place some fishing buddies showed me, not sure if they were hunting chanterelles or something else orange. Anyways, keep up the fun videos, and yes use reusable bags for sure!!!
Thanks for sharing! I just found my first chanterelles yesterday!
Lol 😁 chanterelles matting call. I should use that in my Pine picking videos, lol.
Congratulations! I love mushrooms ,especially truffle! I'm a truffle hunter!
Just bought some at Coscto, 1 lb for $12, what a deal! Way more expensive than white or bellas, but so excited to try them! 🍄🍄
I just found your channel and it is all good. Thumbs up to you.
It’s our first time foraging mushroom 🍄 chanterelles in Prince George 🇨🇦 what a wonderful experiences
I harvested about 5 lbs today . Left some for later . Thanks for the cooking idea.
Awesome video! Love that you're from the PNW as I am. Great videos!
Thanks Anna!
I’ve been wanting to try chanterelles for a very long time and my local grocery store got some recently... thank you for this video. Beautiful home btw
That was great! Like the van, the dog, the mushrooms...well, everything! The channies are up in B.C. We collected a pile this week. 🤙🏼 happy hunting
Oooh good to know that they are out already! I haven't found any yet this season but I guess I'll have to go check my secret spots 😀
Too cute! 🍄😋 Plus, that van is super boss! 🤘
Fun vid, thanks~
Thank you! 😊
Great video, thank you (well explained)! 👍
Thanks! Glad it was helpful!
Love you vibe and love the video! Thanks for posting!!
👆👆look up that handle, he ships swiftly, and he got shrooms, Dmt, lsd, mmda, psilocybin, chocolate bars, he's got a lot.. 🍄 💊🍄🍫💯🔌...
I don't like mushrooms, but your storytelling is so good that I watched the entire video. You are awesome, Callie!
Thanks! I had a blast filming this one!
Love chanterelles!
this was really useful, thanks man!!
Your awesome !! Love what you do and who you are....I’m a fan!!
Ah shucks! Thanks for watching!
Wild Grit too funny!! 😂😂👌🤟🏼I’ll always be watching👁👁
Plastic bag is a no go! Basket of something with holes so the spores can drop free as u walk through the forest 😊
Great Video - Thx Callie !
Damn I love that sense of humor oh my gosh!
Great video! Happy mushrooming.
Haha nice slide!
Those look delicious!
This is very helpful, I want to do more mushroom hunting this summer in PA/NY. My tip for you would be if you go in the rain to wear a pair of latex gloves in your size..to keep your hands dry and warm especially if you hunt in the fall.
In PA, white oaks seem to be my go to for chanterelle patches.
Always mushroom hunt with netted bags so that the spores can spread while you carry the bag around the forest
Great video! Lovin your energy! 😃
👆👆look up that handle, he ships swiftly, and he got shrooms, Dmt, lsd, mmda, psilocybin, chocolate bars, he's got a lot.. 🍄 💊🍄🍫💯🔌...
So awesome good job darling
Just picked some today in Southern Oregon.
Good job! Here in Ukraine we cook them along with the chopped onion adding some sour cream for the last 3 minutes of cooking process.
Hi. How are you and your family doing?
@@Christian-ig2vg luckily we live in western Ukraine and we get the least amount of rockets here. But within the country in general it's horrible. Civilians are killed by hundreds daily. I also wanted to say Thank You to all of you people in United States, Canada, Australia, European Union, Great Britain and to all of you who support us in these hardest days of our lives!! It really means a lot and will never be forgotten!! Together we will bring this horror to the end.
Thank You ❣️🇺🇦
Legend!
Love me some chanterelles. Yer super cute!
Big Fan of that kitchen entry.
Loved you video!
It looks so peaceful where you are.
Your awesome! Thanx
The call worked for me too!
Cool video and channel. Subscribed ✌️
Wild Grit, a good name for an earthy girl. I think you have enough natural pizzazz that you don't need pumpkin spice. I found a good buy for wild Chanterelles at Costco.

Love the vid and I know you dont want to wash but dry brush the shrooms... however... when I had a lot of harvest I too washed a bunch and they still turn out good, but they fry/cook much better if you brush, less water in the pan and Im sure your up on that and there is always that one soiled mushroom you just have to wash anyway Im rambeling.. awesome vid from a fellow northwest meandering mush-roomer. Btw my mom and my family have a chantrelle recipee its been in my family since I dont know when..that will leave you wanting more its so good hit me up if you want it.
Awesome video ! 😂
Here is Wisconsin, we have Morels. I don't eat mushrooms, but I will hunt for them from time to time. Fun fact: Where ever you find Morels growing, Ginseng is always growing around it.
Oh very cool! I'll have to see if ginseng grows in the PNW...yum!
cool vibe coming from you
Thats a great video. Thx
Glad you liked it! Thanks!
Thanks for your cute video!
Greetings from Scotland 🤗 I just picked my first batch of Chantrelles & wanted to check they are right.
Your video is entertaining & helpful. Now I'm sure they aren't the false type, I checked!
I'm off to cook them just like you did. 👍🏻
Why do I feel a bit nervous about them? Perhaps I'm scared they will upset my stomach..
I remember my Dad used to Hunt them here & cook with garlic & tomatoes.
Wish me luck! 🤞 It's the start of chanterelle Season here , most are quite small. 🐱☯️🌌🏴
I've never been nervous about picking them, but that's mainly because I've been eating Chanterelles my whole life! Best of luck and I hope you enjoy them!
I just went today hunting for chanterelles.....
I think it is still a little early this year in the PNW.......praying for rain!!
I'm your 666 subscriber lol
Just found your channel and I love it!
You’re hilarious and cute. Nice video!
Nice video. I like your forest foraging. :) I had to tell you- there is a buttered version, that includes a secret seasoning in Sweden- elite restaurant, but, minimalistic... didn't guess the herb-yet. But, god... not parsley... sth. Else!
As a long-time mushroom forager, I know from experience that cutting the mushrooms off at the base will eventually kill the underlying mycelium. The open-cut top exposes the network under the soil to bacteria and other pathogens that can and will harm the mycelium. I was cutting them off at the base for years, and eventually, they stopped coming back. Now I have switched to gently twisting them out of the ground, which allows the underlying network to remain unexposed to pathogens. They have a natural pinch-point at the base underneath the soil, and when you twist them out, this is where they break off. Its seals off the mycelial body.
Just had some for breakfast this morning here in New Hampshire. Cooked them with onions and eggs. They grow right in my back yard. Ooops I told you where my secret spot is. I will just keep a look out for a maroon knitted hat.
Oooh yummy! Thanks for the FYI. I guess I'll have to disguise myself by wearing a different hat during my grand theft chanterelle heists!

Chanterelles sounds like a singing group from the door woo era .
....And now on stage the Chanterelles..... ooooohhh sha dupe dooby doo oooh sha dupe dooby wah..... in the forest.. Evergreen.... there's a mushroom, that tastes good steamed , bright orange like Bert Raccons sweeter, Calis a chef and a go getter . In the Evergreen forest sha dupe dooby wah.....
Wow if you don't turn this into a song I might have to!

Hi 👋🏻 good job 👏
YOUR MUSHROOM CALL WORKED
But its really like inspirating me how other people from all over the world deal with wildmushrooms or the nature itself. thumb up!
Ive only had them once, sautéed them with steak and they were soooo good.
Wow! Those are some of the biggest chanterelles I've ever seen. Nice! I guess I'll have to work on that call.
Oh yes, you should show your audience, how to make a nice "Jägerschnitzel", using pork or beef or veil or game, and of course chanterelle mushrooms and potatoes.
Uh yes please ! Keep killing it !
Thanks Thomas!
@@callie_waldschmidt no problem !
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
It's the way we do it in the mountains of Pennsylvania....I Make many videos just for fun. under : Bouncer Slab : with the eagle Avatar. This is my experimental new channel. 👍😁 FYI ...you are a beautiful woman. Thank you for your kindness.
Nice vid 😃
Thanks!
Looks like the Willamette valley to me! Unmistakably PNW whatever the case :)
Mid June these start in Southern Illinois and they are everywhere
I like the way you like simple life. I wish I can be your friend :-)
Thank you! At least can be CZcams friends!
I'm going to shoot my first mushroom hunting video..any suggestions? 🙃
I am so grateful for those naturalists who share their experience and tips for nature connection... my greatest suggestion would be to include the why and how to forage, with mindfullness to what the forest offers, asking before taking... and considering the lessons from an Indigenous tradition of giving thanks. One of my greatest rolemodels, Robin Wall Kimmerer, shares the honourable harvest guidelines here: www.allcreation.org/home/honorable
@@wildchildrootzishere this is great advice! Something I strive to embody every time I go out foraging. Reading her book Braiding Sweetgrass now and it just… so good.
@@fungiquestnw5346 "My first taste of the missing language was the word Puhpowee on my tongue. I stumbled upon it in a book by the Anishinaabe ethnobotanist Keewaydinoquay, in a treatise on the traditional uses of fungi by our people. Puhpowee, she explained, translates as “the force which causes mushrooms to push up from the earth overnight.” Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass ... MY FAVOURITE WORD!! So glad her mentorship inspires you too. Happy connecting, fungi friend
@@wildchildrootzishere I definitely stashed “Puhpowee” in the ol vocab bank, especially when she told us about how mushrooms aren’t the only things rising mysteriously in the night 😂
Truly life changing writing. Can’t wait to read more of her work(/play)!
P.s. this is my personal account (FungiQuestNW is my mushroom account and I didn’t feel like switching again 😅)

New subscriber here, good thing I found your channel 😊where is this place?
I found a ton today here in KY hills.
Nice Vid!
Just a comment, picking up mushroom won't harm too bad the mycelium if you do it properly (without damagind the soil around the mushroom). The main issue of cutting mushroom is that some other molds might infect the chunk of mushroom left behind. This contamination can make the mycelium die :x. There's no silver bullet, but if you choose to cut mushroom, please try to leave the smallest amount of mushroom on the ground :).
PS: Avoid plastic bags, some mushrooms can become toxic when they're carried in such containers. Prefer bags made of fabric or better a wicker basket
Thanks
The Jack o Lantern mushrooms, especially young ones, look a lot like these Chantelle’s. Be careful if you watch this video and go foraging for them!
Nice organic fungi ✌
Which part of Washington are you finding these? The peninsula or east of Seattle?
💖💖💖
Where did you go to hunt for mushrooms?
Here is a recipe my parents did a few times:
some sort of game, like deer, a sauce made from the game's resulting baking juice and cream, black pepper, salt, potatoes, and chanterelles and parsley. Search online for photos and recipes of "Jägerschnitzel".
Dam I wish I had some! south west is a bit harsh bit more challenging for timing and very few places to hunt.. found some old chicken a few week back love that stuff one of my favorites! been a while sense iv found some prime "Chicken" but every time i do I get all weird and can not stop sniffing it that good earthy smell makes me crazy...
Nothing better than the smell of some fresh mushies!
@@callie_waldschmidt so how often you see chicken of the woods/sulphur shelf up there.?
Nice van
fall IS the best season
escpecially in BC cus skiing starts
I couldn't agree more!
