If they get too big(they get about 2 foot across) I use them for soup stock. these are the perfect size. I soak them for an hour to kill any critters crawling around on them and I usually fry them up in garlic butter or I deep fry them. Most Of the time I use the garlic butter and throw them on top of a steak or I will make a heavy cream sauce and make a pasta dish of some sort.
Shrooms are great! Gotta know what you're picking though. A good guide to shrooms with nice color photos would be a great addition to any book collection.

Salt
Pepper
Cayenne
Butter
And onions
The mushrooms and onions were both nice and soft but the mushroom flavor was so strong and overpowering. Any way to combat this?
The one mushroom I cooked for lunch to test was better, but I cooked the pieces for a longer time and they were a bit harder.
Also, I cut the mushrooms into pretty thin strips, maybe a quarter inch thick, 1 inch long.

The dude is dressed up for a gig and finds a bunch of Chanterelles out in the parking lot.
That's the nature of foraging in a nutshell.
Once you recognize food, you find it more or less wherever you are.
