Cousins to both the golden chanterelle and the black trumpet, these three closely related species are often found growing together and are collectively known by the name Yellowfoot Chanterelle. This mushroom has an intensely fruity aroma and makes a flavorsome addition to pasta sauces, pizza or omelets.
The Yellowfoot is a small, delicate thin-fleshed mushroom with a cap color ranging from orange to yellow to brown, always with a golden stem. It is most often found on damp mossy hummocks in mature forests.
Latin Names: Craterellus tubaeformis, Craterellus ignicolor, Craterellus lutescens
Season: August-October
