Grey chanterelles. Fluted, trumpet-shaped, wild mushrooms with a ruffled edge, dark grey to black in colour. They are commonly found under pine, beech or birch trees from July until the first frosts and thrive in wet summers. They are usually sautéed in butter with chopped onions, but are not considered as tasty as the horn of plenty, which they resemble.
Three bearded rockling, onos. A small Mediterranean fish, the largest of which are prepared in the same way as whiting.
Truffle. If they are not described as the more precious white truffle, these will almost invariably be the dark, gnarled black truffle.
