I'm pretty sure I've seen about a million Chantrelles, just never had the balls to try one.

Where do you live? Sometimes nature centers have programs that teach you the basics indoors then everyone goes out and collects mushrooms. Everyone comes back together and the instructors help teach everyone to identify them. Mushrooms Demystified has been the best book I’ve found. Start with Chanterelles, lions mane, chicken of the woods, oyster mushrooms, etc. Paul Stamets has a great book about inoculating your own mushroom logs. Mycelium Running is another great book by him.

I'm in West Feliciana parish now. I've been picking a lot of chanterelles but have been reluctant to try any others. Thanks for the tip
