Chanterelles


A wonderful, wonderful afternoon mushrooming in Inverness-shire last weekend with Davina, Alastair from Anam Cara (www.anamcara.org) and some of his neighbours. We found more chanterelles than I have ever found, puddles of softly solidified orange light dappled between the clumps of grass. If I don't go on a foray at least once every autumn, I don't feel I have experienced the season properly. Later we cooked up a risotto with our finds which we shared with the Wwoofers who'd just arrived.
