Apparently you can eat the puffballs? I only ever gave them my best match winning penaly kick impersonation.
Sooo good, the flavour leaves the supermarket ones for dead !!
Told the boys we might find a few more after the rain [emoji106]

Is there somewhere reliable that can tell me what mushrooms are safe to eat? I have been told even though they may look like button ones doesn’t mean they are ok to eat. We have quiet a few starting to pop up around the farm.Quote:

I was told as a kid that if you can peel it, you can eat it....... Apparently you cannot peel a toadstool???Quote:

If you find a good source I want to know too. Mushrooms can be notoriously difficult to identify, and safe species can look identical to toxic species. I did a bit of mushroom collecting of the magic variety and one of the ways to identify them is to take a spore print to see the color of the spores. You might need to go through some annoying binomial keys to get a good grasp on the features to look for. Boletes are probably your best bet at ensuring you dont pick up something toxic. Go for birch bolete! https://fungalguide.landcareresearch...x?Group=BoleteQuote:

Ive eaten the bright red fly agaric before. Need to boil them to get toxins out before frying. Tastes pretty good. However, like the name suggests, the fungi attracts a lot of flies. There are almost always maggots everywhere in them.
Field mushrooms are pretty safe. The only poisenous one that looks the same and grows in similar places have pure white gills. So as long as you avoid those you are all good.Quote:

I have never actually cooked any of his recipe's but I like this guy, our cooking styles are remarkably similar but he swears less.
