Instructions

Put the chanterelle in a container and pour cool water over them. Lightly rinse and pat them dry with a paper towel. Chanterelles are delicate and can easily break into small pieces if they are handled roughly.

Put the chanterelle mushrooms in a dehydrator. Turn the temperature to between 80 and 90 F for the first two hours. After two hours, turn the heat up to a temperature between 120 and125 F.
