Who likes mushrooms?

Damn this thread to heck! Woody, you need to teach me 'sroom hunting!
you really need to know your stuff about hunting mushrooms or you could end up like Christopher McCandless in 'Into the Wild'.

Thats why I need an expert, like Woody to help! :) I do have some friends that do it, but was never invited. :mad:
 
I only pick up mushrooms I know for sure are edible.

'shroom joke:

~ ... in a green forest, a hunter buddies gathered then prepared a very tasty wild mushroom dish.
but to be sure it's not poisonous, they first gave the little portion to the hunting cabin's resident cat.
The cat ate all he was given, then purring loudly went lie down to sleep.
the hunters agreed it's safe to eat the delicious looking mushroom dish they cooked, and went ahead to eat it.
while almost finished, they noticed the cat suddenly went up, writhing and tossing and frothing at the mouth in agony!
they immediately run to their cars to drive to the ER for stomach pumping!
when they come back cold, tired, hungry, their throat and stomachs sore from the unpleasant treatment,
they went to check how the poor cat is doing.
was he even still alive? did he suffer badly dying?
They felt very silly realizing while they went to ER to pump stomach, the cat, who turned out to be a queen,
has given birth to a few little kitties !! that's why she was writhing, tossing and frothing :giggle: :giggle: :giggle:
They wasted all that good food for nothing !! :rofl:

Jon is still alive and well however Christopher McCandless perished in Alaska. Great book. I couldn't get myself to watch the movie though. :D

I'm only an expert when it comes to Chanterelles. Just a novice for other species. :D
 
I love Mushrooms :D

One of my favourite dishes is Negi & Shimeji Mushrooms with Ni Tamago :dance2:

Excuse my attempts to translate above and I'll now attempt to translate these ingredients to English but that's basically a kind of long but fat at the top mushroom with really (watery? Yolky?) egg.

I have no idea what Negi is in English, it is a long white and green vegetable, if someone figures it out, please let me know.

OOPS ! I read the book , I think I saw the movie too. Yes it was a great book .
 
I love perogies but I've never had mushroom ones. I will have to try that sometime. My favorite perogies at the moment are just potato-and-cheese stuffed.
 
Portabellas! grilled, cooked and on skewers!
