Fresh Wild Black Trumpet Mushrooms – Per Pound

Fresh Wild Black Trumpet Mushrooms

Among the most prized of all wild winter mushrooms, the black trumpet (Craterellus cornucopioides) delivers a sublime flavor — smoky, buttery, and deeply earthy, with a complexity that rivals the morel. Also known as Horn of Plenty and Black Chanterelle, this trumpet-shaped relative of the chanterelle grows in clusters among the leaf litter of deciduous woods, with a season ranging from late summer through late winter depending on region.

Its thin, ruffled cap and grill-less underside give it a distinctive texture — versatile and appealing in a wide range of preparations. The dark color makes a striking visual contrast with pale fish and cream sauces alike.

Culinary Uses

Exceptional in egg and pasta dishes, soups, cream sauces, and with poultry, meats, and seafood. Try them sautéed with fresh herbs, white wine, and cream over fresh pasta for a simple, elegant preparation.
