Yellowfoot chanterelles, also known as winter chanterelles, have a delicate flavor that pairs well with a variety of dishes. Here's a simple and delicious recipe to highlight their unique taste:
Ingredients
-
250g yellowfoot chanterelles, cleaned and trimmed
-
250g pasta (Our Truffle tagleatelle works pretty well)
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 small shallot, finely chopped
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
-
2 tablespoons butter
-
Salt and pepper to taste
-
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
-
Grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for serving)
Directions
Prepare the Yellowfoot Chanterelles:
Clean the yellowfoot chanterelles by gently brushing off any dirt or debris with a soft brush or cloth. Trim the ends if necessary. Avoid washing them as they can absorb water.
Cook the Pasta:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions around 8 min until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
Saute the Aromatics:
In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chopped shallot to the skillet and sauté until fragrant and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
Cook the Yellowfoot Chanterelles:
Add the cleaned yellowfoot chanterelles to the skillet with the garlic and shallot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
Combine Pasta and Yellowfoot Chanterelles:
Once the mushrooms are cooked, add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the mushrooms. Toss everything together gently, adding a splash of pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce and help it coat the pasta evenly.
Season and Serve:
Season the pasta with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese if desired. Serve hot.
Enjoy!
Recipe Note
Serve your yellowfoot chanterelle pasta immediately while it's still hot and enjoy the delicate flavors of the mushrooms.
This recipe is versatile, so feel free to customize it with additional ingredients such as cherry tomatoes, spinach, or pine nuts to suit your taste preferences.
