Lisiaki

Lisiaki (plural noun, Polish) refers to a type of forest mushroom belonging to the Cantharellus genus, commonly known as chanterelles. Specifically, in Poland, "lisiaki" is often used as a general term for various chanterelle species, with Cantharellus cibarius being the most common and sought-after. The term translates literally to "little foxes" in Polish, likely due to their color and occasional habitat. Lisiaki are prized for their distinctive trumpet-like shape, fruity aroma, and delicate, slightly peppery taste. They are a popular culinary ingredient and are often found in Polish cuisine, used in soups, sauces, and as a side dish.
