London, UK, October 2023
Blackening polypore (Meripilus giganteus)
This large, common polypore can be distinguished from its (luckily entirely edible, or simple inedible rather than poisonous) potential confusions by its distinctive bruising - press hard on its surface (or simply handle it and wait a few moments) and it bruises a dark brownish black.
It's one of my favourite wild edibles. Some people complain of its somewhat sour taste, but I find boiling it in water and (vegan) butter and then draining it removes this entirely. It has a pleasant, fibrous texture, similar to meat or dried mango, and I like to use this to make a vegan pulled pork, here served in homemade bao buns. It was my first time making them - they were denser than they're meant to be, unclear if that was because they were gluten free or I over-proofed them. They're delicious as a vehicle for bbq sauce, though.

Trametes versicolor--Turkeytail
I think anyway. It helps to know that we absolutely have not classified all fungi out there. I have photos I've posted to mycology forums and no one knows what they are. Photos are mine, unedited.

Turkeytail isn't so much "edible" (too tough) as consumable--the typical use is to steep it for a bitter but medicinal tisane as it's believed to boost the immune system (it's not poisonous, but use your judgment on that). They can also be put into soup, like bay leaves.
Word of ethics: leave a third of the young ones you find, and only if there are a lot.

Abernethy Forest, Scotland, August 2023
Birch polypore (Fomitopsis betulina)
This amazing fungus has been used for thousands of years as medicine for the immune system, as antiseptic bandages, as tinder, and even to sharpen razors.
It has a number of incredible properties, including being an antiviral, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fungal. It also contains betulinic acid, which can cause the destruction of cancer cells while not affecting healthy cells.
The one in the first picture is the perfect age for harvesting - young, not yet tough, and not yet opened out into a large hoof- or shelf-shaped body.
I dried out these young ones on a sunny windowsill and will be using them to make tea.
