Grey Chanterelle

The Winter Jewel: Grey Chanterelle (Craterellus tubaeformis)

Often referred to as the “Trumpet Chanterelle” or “Funnel Chanterelle,” the Grey Chanterelle is a late-season treasure of the damp, mossy forest floor. Unlike its golden cousin, this variety features a distinctive hollow, yellowish-grey stem and a trumpet-shaped cap with deep, vein-like ridges.

Flavor Profile:
It offers a more rustic and earthy profile than the Golden Chanterelle, with subtle notes of black pepper and a delicate floral finish. Its texture is tender yet holds up beautifully during cooking.

Culinary Uses:
Because of its hollow stem, the Grey Chanterelle is exceptional at absorbing sauces and broths. It is the perfect choice for:

Creamy Forest Soups: Where its peppery notes balance rich dairy.

Hearty Stews: Its thin flesh allows it to cook quickly while maintaining a delightful “bite.”

Drying & Seasoning: This variety dries exceptionally well, intensifying its umami character for year-round gourmet cooking.

Explore our curated recipes to discover why top chefs prize the Grey Chanterelle for its versatility and deep forest aroma.
