<p>[QUOTE="lizjewel, post: 4288672, member: 13874"]<img src="http://lizjewel.com/Chanterelles-Aug-2021.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> I can't tell the size of these irregular pieces? Are they the size of a mushroom, like the <i>chanterelle</i>, say anywhere from 1 to 5" across the top, or so? Am very familiar with chanterelles as we pick them here on our lot and I grew up in Sweden where we went mushroom picking. Incidentally, it's very easy to dry chanterelle for later consumption (soak in cold water overnight to un-dry, mix in in sauces, gravies). However, dried chanterelles are very brittle, crumble easily. If your pieces are hard, petrified, I doubt they're chanterelles, more likely driftwood. The odor may be from storage in a potpourri of dried flowers with a vanilla fragrance. Can you provide a <i>from-to size</i> of these pieces for proportion?</p><p>What we picked under the pines on August 3, 2021:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
