Good day to you all!

there is always a reason for pie, for example; your guinea pig is having a birthday or you want to impress your mother in law. Or just because it's tuesday

Search no longer! and get into the autumn spirit with Cantharal pie!

I went into the forest in search of cantharal. Its a beautiful orange mushroom that smells a bit like apricot. You can find them in the moss. they are not always easy to find but when you find one, most likely there are more in the same square meter. look underneath the moss, that is where they hide.
once you killed an entire family of cantharal mushrooms , you can walk back home and clean them.
make sure you handle with care because this particular mushroom is very fragile and breaks easily.

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C)
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms,
onion and bacon; cook and stir for about 5 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
Reduce the heat to medium, and add the cream and dill; cook and stir for about 10 more minutes.
Remove from the heat, and stir in the cheese.

Place one sheet of puff pastry on a well oiled baking sheet, and pour the mushroom filling over the top.
Cover with the other sheet, and press the edges together to seal.
Make some holes in the top with a fork. Brush the top with beaten egg.

Bake for about 40 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown. Cool, then cut into squares to serve.

Enjoy!
have a beautiful day <3

I did not know you can put mushrooms in pie. Makes me think about pizza. I'm hungry now hehe.

haha you should see it as a filled pizza ! loaded with cheese and cream ..ohyes
you can replace the cantharal also with mushrooms from the store :)

That pie looks good. We have mushrooms here but I don't know anything about them.

well be careful! never just take something, there are a lot poisonous mushrooms out there! i would suggest taking someone with you that knows which ones to pick :)

LOl. Don't worry I don't plan on touching them.

That looks outstanding, now I just have to find some mushrooms that won't kill me.... lol.
Beautiful Pictures as well.

haha yes ! there are a lot of poisonous mushrooms out there ... either you have a good pie , or you kill the whole family or everyone is spacing the F out around the dinner table XD

the thing with these mushrooms are , there aren't any copycats that are dangerous, but always make sure you have the right ones!

and you can always replace them with store bought mushrooms you like :)

LOL, now that would be rather interesting, the whole family tripping on shroons.... Which they do grow around here, I just hope the kids never figure that out.
I would probably opt for the store bought as I have never found cantharal around here.

Incredible sounding recipe!
