I've had an abundance of chanterelles recently and decided to share what I've been doing with them.

Cooking chanterelles is easy, I start by tearing them into evenly sized strips (they're stringy like chicken) and throwing them in a saucepan by themselves to boil off all the water. (Adding a bit of water at the start to cover the bottom of the pan lets you start it on high heat without burning them)

While the water boils off I start making Mexican yellow rice to serve on the side. I don't have fancy ingredients like saffron but turmeric, cumin, garlic, oregano, and a chicken stock cube gets the job done for me.

When the chanterelles are ready I add a bit of oil with onions and poblano peppers cut into strips, and season with cayenne pepper, cumin, garlic, and paprika (salt and pepper to taste). Cook that on high heat and stir until the texture of the veggies is just right. I stop stirring and let it burn a little while melting some cheese on top at the end.

And here is the result:

You can get some tortillas or just eat it as-is, it's delicious either way. Goes well with salsa or hot sauce. I've made this probably 5 or 6 times in the past month because I keep finding more chanterelles and I will never get bored of it.

Still would love to hear some more ideas on how to cook chanterelles, because I will probably find even more soon lol.

Pantheon season 1 has been added to Netflix today, but season 2 has not (and might never be). Both seasons are on Prime Video but it is region-locked, though I'm not sure which regions it is available in.

Pantheon is a fantastic sci-fi show with really smart themes that has been completely screwed over by streaming services. The writing is incredible and contains some very intelligent satire and critiques of big tech corporations, and even dips its toes into geopolitics (not even kidding, the Israel-Palestine conflict becomes a plot point in season 2, and this was written prior to Oct. 7).

If you want to watch the series in its entirety then piracy is a must for the vast majority. Needless to say, I highly recommend watching.

I'm looking for software for making small-scale maps / designs. Say for example I wanted to map out a small-ish plot of land with various markers indicating features of the site. Another requirement is that is must have the capability to depict elevation. Others have recommended map-making software for dungeons and dragons, but of the ones I can find they are either paid / subscription models or they strictly adhere to a grid system that makes it impossible to use for my purposes.

Does anyone have some good recommendations?

Edit: It doesn't have to be a single piece of software necessarily. If anyone has recommendations for a particular workflow (like for example if you know some good open source drawing software I could use to draw over the top of a topographic map) I'm interested in that as well.

More pictures available if needed. I broke a few open that were in rougher shape and they are solid white and spongy all the way through. Found in open woods in West Kentucky.

Thinking about frying these up and seeing how they taste but want a bit more assurance that I'm not taking a huge risk doing so. I couldn't find these in my National Audubon Society Field Guide so I'm a bit reluctant to take the chance.

The underside instantly darkens when scratched.

It's a very vibrant red underneath, I'm too curious not to try and narrow down the species.
