Borde Black Trumpets Dried Mushrooms

The Horn-of-Plenty is the common Craterellus Cornucopioides, known also as the Horn-Like Cratarellus. The Horn-of-Plenty is known in France as the Trompette des Maures, in Germany as Herbsttrompeten, in Italia as the Corno Dell’Abbondanza. This mushroom is a black relative of the chanterelle. Smaller in size than the orange chanterelle, the caps are funnel-shaped and hollow all the way down to the base of the stem. It has been well described as a black Petunia. The texture is crisp and firm, like the Black Fungus, but tastier.
Soak the mushrooms in lukewarm water for about 15 minutes, before cooking.
