Here is a Blog about Pfifferlinge. I found it by googling the word ‘Pfiffferlinge’. Under images of Pfifferlinge was this picture of Pfifferlinge in the pan.
Our daughter bought us the other day a jar with dried yellow chantarelles imported from Poland. As I mentioned in the previous post she also bought us fresh edible red carnations for a salad.
It reminded me of a salad I had for lunch two years ago in Germany. We took a picture of the salad at the time. Here it is. You can see edible daisies on it together with lettuce, tomatoes and plenty of chantarelles.
It was delicious!
The mushroom salad
Hello Uta,
Some years ago I lived for a while in the north- eastern part of Italy and during late summer climbed the hills to collect those chanterelle fungi. They were to be found by the bucket full. We used to put them in the sun on newspapers to dry and used them in all sorts of recipes.
They are not so common in Australia but I remember the taste well., absolutely delicious.
Thanks for the pictures and the memories.
Hello Gerard,
yes, the taste is delicious. Two years ago, when we were visiting in Berlin, we could frequently eat Pfifferlinge. They were plentiful at the time.
Many years ago, when my mother-in-law was still alive, she used to cook them in butter and serve them with scrambled eggs and parsley. We always liked this meal.
Thank you for your comments.
Can’t imagine eating daisies! I wonder how they taste…
Hi Munira,
As I remember it, they don’t have much of a taste. That’s all right, if you combine them with other tastes. Some fresh flowers make the dish look special! I usually like to eat vegetarian. These chantarelles you can add to meat dishes too. I love the taste of chantarelles (Pfifferlinge).
Chantarelles are indeed a wonderful, tasty delicacy. They add flavour to meat dishes but are also beautiful on their own.
The link at the top leads to a blog about Pfifferlinge. I think you’ll find this interesting.
Looks delicious my friend. I still need to try one though. I’m going to check this out. Perhaps there’s one in Houston. Great food shared among great friends. Beautiful!
Thank you!
Looks yummy delicious!
Oh, they are very yummy!
