Today, I want to tell you about the most delicious summer mushroom in our area, namely Macrolepiota Procera.
It bears fruit all summer and almost all autumn, but its most massive growth occurs in June - July ...
At first, the mushroom has an ovoid shape, and later takes the shape of an umbrella. In our country it is called the Umbrella ...
These mushrooms grow massively in one place, either in circles or in whole paths!
A hat with a diameter of 15-30 centimeters, sometimes it reaches 40 centimeters ...
After offensive rains, I often found such specimens)
The leg is very long and fibrous, so I usually dry it and grind it into seasoning ...
The mushroom is completely edible and does not require any pre-processing! Only if it is dirty, you can rinse it with warm water, and then immediately cook any dish!
The flesh of the mushroom is very tender and does not get hard when it gets old ...
Macrolepiota procera spores abundantly (white), that is why this mushroom grows so massively!
I have already dried and frozen these wonderful mushrooms for the winter! If you come across this mushroom, do not pass by! Because even in my area, where everyone knows this mushroom, there are eccentrics who consider it Amanita!)
Well, that's all for today! Thanks for being with me!
I hope you enjoyed my story) And Happy Fungi Friday!
