Minnesota Gold

Shayne bought us a book "Mushrooming Without Fear" because we have seen so many mushrooms this year and we just needed more information.


So we read the book (twice it advises us) and went for a walk in the woods "Up North". We found patches of beautiful deep yellow orange wild chanterelle mushrooms--Minnesota gold.
(Click on the picture for a closeup of these pretty mushrooms.)







We picked and picked and then Mitch cooked this wonderful Sauted Wild Chanterelle Mushroom with White Wine Sauce over Whole Wheat Penne Pasta. Yum Yum!

We are still picking mushrooms. (Did you know that Puffball Mushrooms are edible--and very tasty?!)

PS: Sarah did call and check on us the next day to see if we were still alive!!
