I just mowed a Morel mushroom and then found 2 more!!! Lunchy munchy! Yum yum! Another edible mushroom I’ve now identified and tried to add to my list. My count stands now at 15 (I think) which started with a humble giant puffball mushroom. About half of my finds were found in my own garden. Still on the bucket list - chanterelles! 😊. . . . #foragingisfun #morel #morelmushrooms #morelseason #fungifanatic #ediblemushroom #ediblemushroomsuk #mushroomhunters #freefood #mothernaturewesaluteyou #wiccansofinstagram #hedgewitch #foraginguk (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CrLZTFxoozA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The kind of edibles I like! Been on a mushroom kick lately and been reading up and joining too many mushroom ID FB groups. These could have been picked on my last foraging hunt but since I’ve been coming up with nada I just made some. These are made from gingerbread and dipped in some royal icing. The gills are dark chocolate or white chocolate with some lines made with a knife. Super fun! #ediblemushroom #mushrooms #mushroomcookie #mushroomshape #mushroomphotography #mushroomforaging #mushroomlover #mushroomshapedcookies #gingerbread #gingerbreadcookies #gingerbreadchristmas #christmascookies https://www.instagram.com/p/ClNI-tJM9y8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Edible mushrooms are a diverse group of fungi that are not only yummy but also offer various nutritional benefits. Here are some popular kitchen shrooms:

Button Mushroom (Agaricus bisporus): The most commonly consumed mushrooms worldwide. They have a mild flavor and a firm texture, making them versatile for cooking in various dishes like stir-fries, salads, and soups. They are readily available in grocery stores and are recognizable by their distinct features.

Portobello Mushroom (Agaricus bisporus): Portobello mushrooms are matured, large button mushrooms with a rich, meaty texture. They are often used as a meat substitute in vegetarian dishes and can be grilled, stuffed, or sautéed.

Shiitake Mushroom (Lentinula edodes): Shiitake mushrooms have a distinctive smoky flavor and a meaty texture. They are commonly used in Asian cuisine and can be stir-fried, added to soups and stews, or used as a filling in dumplings.

Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus): Oyster mushrooms have a delicate and slightly sweet flavor. They have a soft texture and are often used in stir-fries, soups, and pasta dishes.

Chanterelle Mushroom (Cantharellus spp.): Chanterelles have a fruity and slightly peppery flavor. They are highly prized for their unique taste and are often sautéed or used in creamy sauces.

Morel Mushroom (Morchella spp.): Morels have a distinct honeycomb-like appearance and a nutty, earthy flavor. They are highly sought after by mushroom enthusiasts and are commonly used in gourmet cooking.

Porcini Mushroom (Boletus edulis): Porcini mushrooms have a rich, nutty flavor and a meaty texture. They are commonly used in Italian cuisine and are often dried for later use in soups, stews, risottos, and pasta dishes.

These are just a few examples of edible mushrooms, and there are many more varieties available around the world. When foraging for wild mushrooms, it's important to have proper knowledge and identification skills or purchase them from reputable sources to ensure safety.

Medicinal mushrooms have been used for centuries in traditional medicine systems, particularly in Asian cultures. These mushrooms are valued for their potential health benefits and therapeutic properties. Here are some notable medicinal mushrooms:

Reishi Mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum): Reishi is often called the "king of mushrooms" and is highly regarded in traditional Chinese medicine. It is believed to support the immune system, reduce inflammation, promote relaxation, and support overall well-being.

Chaga Mushroom (Inonotus obliquus): Chaga is a fungus that grows on birch trees and is known for its antioxidant properties. It is believed to support immune function, reduce inflammation, and potentially help with conditions like digestive disorders and skin problems.

Lion's Mane Mushroom (Hericium erinaceus): Lion's Mane is recognized for its unique appearance, resembling a lion's mane. It is believed to support brain health and cognitive function, potentially aiding memory, focus, and mental clarity.

Cordyceps Mushroom (Cordyceps sinensis): Cordyceps is a parasitic fungus that grows on caterpillar larvae. It has been traditionally used in Chinese medicine to enhance stamina, improve athletic performance, and support respiratory health.

Turkey Tail Mushroom (Trametes versicolor): Turkey Tail has a vibrant appearance with colors resembling the feathers of a turkey's tail. It is recognized for its potential immune-boosting effects and is often used as a complementary therapy for cancer patients undergoing treatment.

Shiitake Mushroom (Lentinula edodes): Shiitake mushrooms are well-known in the kitchen, but they also have medicinal properties. They contain compounds that may support immune function, cardiovascular health, and have potential anti-cancer properties.

These are just a few examples of the many medicinal mushrooms available. It's important to note that while these mushrooms have been traditionally used for their health benefits, scientific research is still ongoing to fully understand their mechanisms of action and potential therapeutic applications. As with any supplement or herbal remedy, it's advisable to consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating medicinal mushrooms into your healthcare regimen.

It is crucial to exercise extreme caution and avoid consuming wild mushrooms unless you are an experienced mycologist or have received proper training in mushroom identification. Many toxic mushrooms closely resemble edible varieties, making it difficult for novices to tell the difference between them. Consumption of toxic mushrooms can lead to severe illness or even be fatal.

Here are a few examples of toxic mushrooms:

Death Cap (Amanita phalloides): The Death Cap mushroom is one of the deadliest and most poisonous mushrooms and responsible for the majority of fatal mushroom poisonings worldwide. It contains potent toxins that can cause severe liver and kidney damage. It closely resembles some edible mushrooms, making it particularly dangerous.

Destroying Angel (Amanita bisporigera): Another highly toxic mushroom is the Destroying Angel. It is part of the Amanita genus and contains deadly toxins that can lead to organ failure. It resembles some edible white mushrooms, making them particularly deceptive, so extreme caution is necessary.

Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria): While the Fly Agaric is not usually fatal, it is considered poisonous and can cause hallucinations, nausea, and other unpleasant symptoms if ingested. It is recognized by its bright red cap with white spots and is often associated with folklore and fairy tales.

False Morels (Gyromitra spp.): False Morels are not directly deadly, but they contain a toxin called gyromitrin that can cause serious health issues. Consuming False Morels can lead to symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and, in severe cases, organ damage.

Jack-O'-Lantern Mushroom (Omphalotus olearius): The Jack-O'-Lantern Mushroom is not deadly, but it is considered toxic. It can cause severe gastrointestinal distress if consumed. It is often found growing in clusters on decaying wood and has a distinct orange color.

Deadly Galerina (Galerina marginata): The Deadly Galerina is a small brown mushroom that contains deadly toxins. It is often found growing on decaying wood and can be mistaken for edible mushrooms. Ingesting this mushroom can lead to liver failure.

Autumn Skullcap (Galerina marginata): Autumn Skullcap is a small, orange-brown mushroom that is highly toxic. It contains the same toxins as the Deadly Galerina and can cause liver failure if ingested.

This is not an complete list, and there are so many other toxic mushrooms. It's important to remember that accurately identifying mushrooms is essential for foraging and consuming them safely. It is best to rely on expert identification or consult a trained mycologist before consuming any wild mushrooms. Unless you have extensive knowledge and experience in mushroom identification, it is best to avoid consuming wild mushrooms altogether to prevent the risk of poisoning and death.

Be safe, be blessed, and hope you enjoyed today's topic!

Beech mushrooms are a type of edible mushroom that are popular in many different cuisines, and I love how they look in their natural state. The soft, delicate caps and spindly stems create a whimsical and charming composition that is perfect for a gouache painting. The gentle curves and folds of the mushroom caps were carefully painted to create a sense of depth and dimension, while the light and shadow effects added a sense of realism to the piece. Whether you love mushrooms for their delicious taste or simply appreciate their unique beauty, I hope this painting brings a smile to your face. I can't wait to see what you think about this piece! Tag me in your photos if you decide to recreate this piece.

Yay! I found the motherload of oyster mushrooms today and whilst big, they’re still in great condition. I found their secret hiding place last year but was too late and they’d frozen too many times. I had been looking out for them this year and nearly missed it, it’s so hidden. Now need to work out the best way to preserve them as there’s more than I need with plenty left for nature too! . I love all the oysters!! @theoysterlady . . . #oystermushrooms #greyoystermushroom #pluerotusostreatus #mushroomhunter #mushroomsofinstagram #mushroomtreasures #foragingisfun #foraginglincoln #lincolnshireforaging #mushroomforaginguk #ediblemushroom #onethirdrule #needabiggerbarrow https://www.instagram.com/p/ClbWw3po7I8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Lion’s Mane Mushroom

I have lots of dried lion’s mane mushroom for sale. Lion’s mane has a mild and delicate flavor, and it is loaded with nutrition and medicinal properties.

This mushroom has been demonstrated to prevent cancer and heal neurological and cognitive issues.

The dried mushroom can be reconstituted and used for cooking. It can also be used to make a tincture, extract, or tea.
