FAQs about mushrooms

Hedgehog mushrooms are very similar to chanterelle mushrooms. Both of these mushroom varieties have a nutty, slightly sweet taste and firm texture. They also grow in the same locations. As they are so similar, many people substitute hedgehog mushrooms for chanterelles when chanterelles are out of season and vice versa. Chanterelles appear earlier than hedgehog mushrooms, with hedgehogs appearing towards the end of the chanterelles' growing season. As hedgehog mushrooms can withstand the cold better than chanterelles, they are available for more than a month after chanterelles die off.

Wash fresh wild mushrooms, including hedgehog mushrooms, before eating or cooking them. Washing removes bugs, wood chips, pine needles, and other elements from the forest floor. After washing your mushrooms, lay them out to dry on some kitchen towels or sheet pans lined with paper towels. Leave them for an hour before chopping up the caps and stalks. Mushrooms that aren't completely dry won't taste as flavorful, and they may develop a slimy texture during the cooking process, so make sure you don't skip this step.

Make sure you wash your hedgehog mushrooms just before using them. Adding water to mushrooms before storing them in the refrigerator can speed up spoilage caused by bacteria.
