Button-Cap Chanterelles

This product is not currently available.

We love these apricot-colored beauties for their deeply nuanced, fruity notes and white pepper finish. Prettier and more intensely flavored than regular Chanterelles, the gorgeous Button-Caps hail from a remote region of northern Saskatchewan, where Tyler Gray's network of local foragers hunt them in the late summer. With their practically pristine stems, they only need a gentle trim at the base and they're ready for a pan of hot butter.

Here's what you get:

  • 1 lb of fresh button-cap Saskatchewan Chanterelles

Co-founder Tyler Gray began his foraging career as a child while gathering brambleberries (and escaping bears) in the forests of British Columbia. Throughout his many early adventures—which include diamond mining and driftwood scavenging—his passion for food foraging never waned. He's now the trusted forager for the country's top chefs.

Northern Bites

The season for Button-Cap Chanterelles is short and sweet: Deep in the Canadian wilderness, these tender little mushrooms thrive on tufts of pale green caribou moss for just six to eight weeks. Then, they're gone. We aren't the only ones delighted by Button-Cap season--this time of year, you'll find the Chanterelles in the kitchens of Thomas Keller, Mario Batali and David Chang, to name a few. One of our favorite Button-Cap recipes is a pasta dish by Angelo Romano with cherry-pepper pickles, pecornio cheese and toasted bread crumbs.  It's a gorgeous, golden dish.
