Ở Việt Nam, một trong những loại nấm rừng được yêu thích nhất là nấm mối. Nấm có màu trắng, mọc ở khoảng đất trên ổ mối. Mỗi năm thu hoạch 1 lần. Năm đầu, khi đi tìm nấm mối, người đi hái sẽ ghi nhớ vị trí, để năm sau đến ngay vị trí đó mà hái vì nó sẽ mọc lại cùng vị trí. Nấm ngon nhất khi chưa bung dù. Khi đã bung dù, tôi nghe nói ngoài giảm độ ngon, thỉnh thoảng nó còn có dòi.
A week ago a friend took me hunting for Chanterelles on Mt Hood for my first time. Yesterday another friend showed me an area up the Columbia River Gorge. I’m so excited that I finally know how to identify the Chanterelles. We also harvested lobster and cauliflower. This morning I happened to stumble onto this video. You have an excellent description of different mushrooms. I also have a great appreciation for your HD camera that you are filming with.
Thanks! Glad you're enjoying the videos - sounds like an absolutely stellar start to the mushroom season for you. And great find on the cauliflower mushroom - that is such a treat! It really has been the perfect mushroom year so far! 🤞 I appreciate you tuning in, and can't wait to get the next video out your way!
It is a good year. Finally able to restore my freezer chantrelle and lobster stash. Its been 3 years since we had this good of season around the Kitsap Pen. I was thinking tword the end of the month to forage the upper Dungeness river for matsuki. I did well up there back 10 years ago.
Nice! Always great to have chanterelles and lobsters stored away for leaner times ... hopefully the matsutake season is equally bountiful. I'd be curious to hear about whether or not you encounter success up the Dungeness this year. Hoping conditions continue to favor mushrooms deeper into the fall season 🤞
I seem to find “smooth” chanterelle here on the east coast in Maryland, and July seems to be the prime month, depending on the rainfall. I have found chanterelle that are a bit different that I refer to as golden chanterelle. They seem to be more stout with thicker stipes.
Interesting! I suspect that the "Smooth Chanterelle" may be Cantharellus lateritius and that the Golden may be Cantharellus cibarius ... even though we have different species out here in the PNW than you have out there, it is interesting to note that all of the Golden Chanterelles used to fly under the same scientific name. I suspect that there will be even more species splits to come.
@@MushroomTrailyes, I think most people refer to our chanterelles here as lateritius, smooth chanterelle. I love coming across the Goldie’s though, so thick and meaty!😊. Hope to make it out to the PNW someday!👍
Nice! What a great spot to be poking around for mushrooms! Hope the season continues to treat you well ... just got a little rain, so I'll be excited to see what the next few days bring.
No doubt! This has been an absolutely phenomenal year for them - we can only hope that this incredible 2024 mushroom season continues the way it has started!
@@MushroomTrail I discovered using my air fryer at 325° for about 5-7 ninutes in a foil bowl with pads of butter, salt, pepper, fresh garlic is my new way to cook them. They don't lose any liquid and the edges have a little crunch! This is on my middle rack. I believe the air fryer works better with the hot air circulation. I used to saute in an iron skillet but they would lose liquid fast and get rubbery if cooked too long. Air Fryer is now king!! Cheers!
That's a great question! And the answer can vary quite a bit depending on your region and who you ask (sometimes the line can be blurry in separating mature secondary growth from old growth, but in much of WA we're looking for trees that are greater than 200 years old). There are also especially old stands (consisting of >400 year old trees here in WA) that we refer to as "ancient forests". Some things to consider are the tree makeup, tree canopy, dominant species, tree diameter, the presence of large snags and fallen dead wood, understory plants... and lots more. The forest in this video contains trees that are 300+ years old, and I would categorize portions of it as being "old growth" but not necessarily "ancient growth". You'll notice that many of the trees display different bark characteristics as they reach more and more mature growth. This is especially evident to me in old growth Douglas Firs, that often develop deep furrows and a different, flaky texture. If you're here in WA, this is an excellent resource to check out: www.dnr.wa.gov/programs-and-services/forest-resources/habitat-conservation/identifying-mature-and-old-forests
Hi there. I foraged and found a bunch of winter chanterelles here in Florida today and three different types of milks caps. I’m going to give you a hard time about knocking milk caps. They are an east coast treasure. Fry them up in a batter like fried chicken and you’ll never knock them again. The chanterelles are good fried like that too but the milk caps are hearty and the latex makes them not mushy they are great for non mushroom lovers and add them to your duxelles for some chew in the mix instead of just soft s chrome like boletes and chants. 😊
Nice! That's very cool! I've heard of some winter chanterelles just beginning to come up in places out here in the PNW too. Curious to know which types of Milk Caps you're finding out there. I've seen a lot of Russulas popping up (closely related to the Milk Caps) ... but not too many Milk Caps recently. Already getting excited for the coming Candy Cap season though!
@@MushroomTrail the corrugated ones are starting to come in strong. They are really good for frying. My fav is the Lactifluus Voluminous although I get Delicious too mostly early season. The Indigos are sparse and mid summer. The white ones are peppery. All three of the edibles are prolific. I harvest over an 8 mile track. On horseback. Only way to go! 🍄. I also get the big ones in the process. (Chickens white and Orange and big polypores). It’s really nice. Very private.
That sounds like quite the haul! I've always thought that the indigo milk cap is quite a good looking mushroom - wish we got those out here! Best of luck out there - hope the Fall season continues to treat you well! 🍄
The last couple of years have not been good for Chanterelles in my area but this year has been fairly good so far. With a day or two the picking could become really good!
I agree! The conditions here in the PNW have been just perfect this year... likely lots more to come in the days ahead! Curious to know - are you here in the PNW too?
I love Hedgehog mushrooms! I was surprised to encounter some this summer on Olympic Coast. But I typically don't see them in my local lowland forest - mostly up in the mountains. How about you? Are you encountering those out on Vancouver Island much?
That's a great question! And it often depends a lot on the environmental conditions. A little rain often does wonders to spur rapid growth and, although it depends on the species, temperature also plays a crucial role in how quickly mushrooms grow (oftentimes if it is getting into the 60's, that is ideal ... but it really does depend on species). If we hit a patch of consistent temps that fall within a species' "sweet spot" you will see rapid growth. The Pacific Golden Chanterelle is a little unique, because its fruiting body is particularly long-lived ... it will often grow for well over a month and is typically regarded as a relatively slow grower. This has been such a great year for them so far! Fingers crossed that it continues! 🤞
Nice! This definitely seems to be a record year for White Chanterelles so far (at least in my world of foraging!) Best of luck out there with the Kings! They have definitely been up ... I was foraging them August 19th but haven't gotten a chance to get back into the hills recently ... keep me posted on how it goes!
Wow! Super jealous of all those chantarelles. Haven't been able to get out enough lately and when I have, I've really struggled. Hopefully I'll get out this weekend and have some better luck. Should I be staying lower in elevation? Most of my spots are around 2000' or so. Thanks for taking me along and keep up the great work!
It really has been an incredible start to the mushroom season! I'm excited about the rain that's in the immediate forecast, combined with slightly cooler temps ... things should really be popping this weekend! All of these chanterelles were had between 500-600' ... but I would suspect that they should be showing up at slightly higher elevations as well in the days ahead. Good luck out there!
😂 Even the wee mushrooms deserve proper cover in higly trafficked areas -- they like to keep their home patches secret! Glad you're enjoynig the videos - thanks for tuning in!
Interesting theory about rosecomb mutation, I could definitely see how it might be an evolutionary advantage for fruiting bodies that are struggling to fully emerge
Thanks - I think it really is a possibility based on observations ... but just a theory at this point. I still have more questions than answers, but would love to see more research go into that topic. Would also love to get additional opinions on this thread too! Seems like I'm constantly observing rosecomb in areas that seem to be really clean environments... but I'm wondering if others are observing the same.
I try to keep it as close to 100% live commentary as possible ... seems to make it more conversational, authentic, and easier to edit. Occasionally if I get a bad audio file or other interruption while filming, I have to improvise... but that always ends up being being a little more work, is often less fluid, and is not ever the plan. My goal on these walks is to make it feel as if you're out there with me, in real time, seeing what we see.
Got my first chantarelles of the season last weekend near sea level. This weekend I'm heading up into the mountains hoping for porcini, I heard they are coming in already at 2000ft+ elevation.
Awesome! Keep me posted on what you encounter out there. These chanties all came from 500-600' ... But, surprisingly, I got into tons of porcini in North Cascades on August 19th this year. That was around 5,000-6,000' elevation. (Haven't gotten a chance to throw any footage from up there yet, but we'll see if time allows!) Best of luck up there with the Kings!
@@MushroomTrail Just got back and my word, we found a lot of boletes of all shapes and description up around the 2000' and higher zone. Most were already blown out and wormy and it feels like I left about 3x as many behind as I took home but found about 4lbs still in good enough shape to dry and a couple of prime ones for the table tonight.
Nice! Glad to hear! Thanks for the update - that sounds like a great haul!! And those dry out so well ... love having jars of those sitting in the pantry. Should be interesting to see what the slightly cooler weather in the forecast does for us in the days ahead!
Can mushrooms fruit without the rain? I'm in south Oregon and it hasn't rained much yet, so I'm wondering if I'll find any chanterelle or matsutake mushrooms without any significant rain
Boy ... there's really no substitute for a good hard rain. We do get some flushes during the dry summer months from humidity and/or drip from coastal fog, but those typically pale in comparison. Hope the rains find their way down to you in the days ahead!
Unfortunately I'm not as familiar with those areas ... but ironically, someone was just mentioning that they were finding them in the coastal forests of Northern California just off of 101 ... I know that isn't super specific, but they're definitely there! And they're definitely out right now in your area. I'd recommend checking out the "Explore" tab on iNaturalist to get a feel for what local habitats they're popping up in. You could even narrow the time window to the last month or so to enable yourself to get a really good sense of what areas are beginning to wake up early for the mushroom season! Good luck out there!
Thanks @masamunesword - excellent points! I'll also add that those two mushrooms you reference are both incredible in their own right. Cantharellus californicus can get absolutely huge! And the Western Jack'o'Lantern is bioluminescent ... it's a crazy world out there in terms of fungi!
Those slugs can definitely go to work on mushrooms of all sorts given the opportunity ... just to clarify though, are you referring to them being the source of the rosecomb mutation?
Why do you cover the ones you don’t take? The forest has so many! Why not give others a chance to find them? (Especially since these videos mean you probably want to share the joy with others?)
That is true - there are so many out there! I'm only covering up the small ones to give them an adequate chance to fruit out so that they aren't plucked too early ... and even though there are plenty of places where I leave them uncovered, I do prefer to keep my favorite patches as "under the radar" as possible.
