I was out searching for a good Chanterelle recipe that I can take to work and found these. Most I have ever seen in one list.

Couldn't help but notice the recipe for "Chanterelle Hash With or Without Spam".... What!!!!! No Spam!!!!

Lots of recipes ... Did a quick span of about 20%. One thing I noticed is that several of the recipes call for a fair amount of garlic. I love garlic with morels or with boletes, but I think that the pungent flavor of garlic tends to conflict with the sweet fruity flavor of chants.

Thanks zora, I bookmarked it. I have no problem finding fungi, but when it comes to cooking them I tend to draw a blank, especially with chanterelles. So, I'm always looking for good chanty recipes.

Chanterelle and bacon pizza

I have pizza crust and sauce, just need to find some chanties.

I could take or leave the spam. But, I think that a recipe with chants and Hash might be interesting. I don't find chants, so I have to buy them at the Wholefoods in B-more in the fall. I use them for wild mushroom stuffing with Thanksgiving dinner. I normally quarter them and throw them in a super hot dry pan, then I add some olive oil. It gives them more of a nutty flavor than just sauteing them in oil. I've tried this method with most mushrooms, but the chants are best in a dry pan.

I found that chanterelle chili is a big hit every year at our annual cook off.

I made three pots in 2006, dried morel, chanterelle & portabello, folks were cautious of mushroom chili but since then the chanterelle pot is the first to be eaten up.

That chantie chili looks like a very unique dish. Are those pearl onions? Looks like maybe some cloves of garlic in the pic. I use lots of garlic when I make chili. I've not ever thought of putting chanties into a really spicy dish like chili. (I make mine spicy.) I think Hedgehogs would also work really well like this.

Finally got my first channys of the year I love cooking them with eggs they pair great.I really enjoy them in a nice sausage quiche

Chants and eggs are the best! But this weekend I did this one and it was unbelievably good. We had this drizzled on crab cakes and the leftover sauce we put on eggs in the morning.
Here is that recipe. I used a good wine and no flour.

My Recipe Notes: Save recipe note

Ingredients
Use high quality organic ingredients when available.

2-3 C. fresh Chanterelle mushrooms (If using dried, reconstitute by soaking in water for 1 hour)
1/4 C. chopped shallots
3/4 C. dry white wine
1 pt. heavy cream
2 Tbs. butter
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tsp. salt or to taste
1/2 tsp. black pepper or to taste
2 tsp. paprika
1-2 Tbs. flour
Directions

Lightly saute butter, garlic and shallots together in a medium sauce pan until flavors mingle. Add white wine and cream. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to medium-low, stirring frequently. In a medium saucepan dry-saute the Chanterelles until excess water has evaporated and transfer to the cream mixture (skip this step if using dried Chanterelles.) Add salt, black pepper and paprika. Simmer on low heat for 25-30 minutes until the sauce has been thoroughly infused with the flavor of the Chanterelles. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of flour to thicken.

Zora's wine/cream sauce seen in the previous post was just awesome on the crab-cakes! For chicken and some fish I like to use the Bechmel style white sauce (along with chants), but for use with shellfish zora's rich cream sauce can't be beat.
