    What you have is what's commonly known as the pine bolete, the King of all mushrooms, here in Madrid in Spain the price on the market for kg was 40 euros, almost 50 dollars!, you can carefully rip them off the ground and cut away parts with mud in the spot, the most important thing if you want them to keep growing is to cover the whole again so the mycelium is protected.

    You should clean them on site to let the spores fall off. Again, the other thing is that you should have a proper basket that have openings to let the spores fall, so to help the growth of new mushrooms.

    Hi, if you have excess mushrooms that you can't eat fresh, then drying them really accentuates the flavour even more. You cut them up in slivers, dry them and freeze in a container or ziplock bag, they will last for years that way. When you want to use them, just add some boiling water to the dried mushrooms and they will re-constitute themselves with even more flavour than before to go into your pasta, risotto, soup or whichever dish you are preparing. Enjoy! 👍

  • @Hooliganius
    @Hooliganius 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    This was an amazing summer for mushrooms. We found that Amanita Muscarias (Fly Agaric) grow near Porcinis as they love the same conditions. Where you see one, you'll find the other.

    Nice mushrooms, pine bolete. When you are out there in the forest looking for them use knife cut them deep in the ground (this helps them grove again) and clean them on spot that way you not bringing all that dirt back home with you. You know you can cut them like that and put them in a freezer and eat them later also. You can make salad out of them as well. Use basket instead of bucket to help spread mycelium so that you can enjoy them again next year at that same spot. Enjoy!!

    Here in austria it is common to just dry boletes if there are a few maggots inside.
    They just crawl out while the mushroom dehydrates.
    These are a few boletes we collect im austria:
    Boletus reticulatus
    Boletus edulis
    Boletus pinophilus
    Suillellus luridus
    Neoboletus Erythropus
    Leccinum versipelle
    Imleria badia

    I like that you are using an external mike. I wish more youtube channels would invest in one. Wind is a real challenge for a lot of channels. The built-in omnidirectional mikes do not pickup audio as well due to certain body positioning.

    @sarayates5570 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Cool finds! I recommend cutting them off at the base instead of pulling out 🙂👍🏻 Discoloration on the underside of the cap can mean that the fungus is past prime for eating. You may opt for harvesting when younger and smaller and not as discolored. As far as insects go, many wild mushrooms have bugs when harvested. I soak mine in a salt water solution for a little while to get the bugs to come out, depending on the type of mushroom. Hope this is helpful!

    • @ColoradoMountainLiving

    • @flakey1228
      @flakey1228 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Thats just wrong. Discoloration of the sponge just means that the spores begin to mature. Nothing more.
      If the mushroom is still firm and smells good there is no real reason not to use it.
      Boletes are the only mushrooms where people spread this misinformation.
      Look for example at agaricus bisporus.
      Young they are sold as button mushrooms and when they fully mature and the gills start to turn dark brown it is called portabello.
      It just doesnt magically spoil after spore maturation.
      Non the less, only firm and non spoiled mushrooms should be picked if you are sure that they are not poisonous.

    People have been eating A. muscaria for thousands of years. I harvest and eat them every year. I save some for medicinal purposes, some for meditation, and if it's a bountiful year, simply eating them. Each function has a specific way to prepare. The phobia about them is unwarranted and been blown way out of proportion. If you eat them raw you will get cramps, the poops, and GI irritation. You know what else gives you that if you don't cook them? Potatoes, cassava, kidney and lima beans, and more.
    Because they can be quite plentiful, you can harvest tens, even hundreds of pounds in one session. They require a bit of work - boiling and draining a number of times, but boiling and draining a few times for weeks or months of free food is a pretty darn good trade-off. Of course, there is nothing particularly special about their flavor, and they are far more useful as topicals, tinctures, teas, micro-dosing, and of course, macrodosing.
