The Chanterelle Book

by Olle Persson

The Chanterelle Book Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A culinary and historical paean to the venerable "Cantharellus cibarius", this book traces the fragrant fungus through some 5,000 years of history to its current popularity in farmer's markets and gourmet restaurants around the country. Eloquent scientific and literary tributes from Scandinavia, Germany, and Italy, full-color illustrations, and a wealth of fascinating biological, ecological, and geographical facts work together to create a picture of a truly unusual treat.

Book News Annotation:

A charming collection of historical facts about and description of the appearance, geography, habitat, and culinary qualities of the delectable chanterelle mushrooms of Europe and North America. Includes a number of classic recipes. Fine color illustrations of chanterelles and their habitats accompany the text.
