Chantarelles

About Chantarelles

Chantarelles (lat.: Cantharellus cibarius) belong to the most popular edible mushrooms in Europe. They are charaterised by its mildly peppery taste (therefore its German name, Pfifferling). 

Because of its high amount of protein, potassium and vitamin D the chantarelle is one of the healthiest mushrooms. Hence it serves as valuable source of minerals and this although it consists of roughly 92% water.

Origin & Geographical Distribution

Chanterelles sprout from June till late autumn in Europe’s deciduous and coniferous forests. However, they also grow in Australia, South and North America as well as northern Asia. Advantageous for a high yield chantarelle season is a rainy but warm summer.

Since the mushroom can only flourish with the fine roots of certain tree types, it can not be breeded. Chantarelles grow mostly near spruces, beeches, oaks, birches and pines.
