That is about as good as wild food gets.

You lucky lucky barstard!

We used to pick bags and bags of them on the wee farm I grew up on, used to get the occasional soccer ball sized puff ball too.
Apparently you can eat the puffballs? I only ever gave them my best match winning penaly kick impersonation.

Sooo good, the flavour leaves the supermarket ones for dead !!

Told the boys we might find a few more after the rain

Lucky bastard all I've got so far is this.
We need rain to get them going and then for a few wonderful weeks everything we have for tea is black.

Is there somewhere reliable that can tell me what mushrooms are safe to eat? I have been told even though they may look like button ones doesn’t mean they are ok to eat. We have quiet a few starting to pop up around the farm.

Here's one from Easter weekend

[hotbarrels]

Got our church men's camp this weekend. Quite a few SA's.
Been toying with giving sausage making a go as I already had the mincer and just needed the stuffer. That arrived just before Easter.
Shot a nice fat hind over the Easter weekend.
In typical 'go hard or go home' fashion I said "yea, I'll make some Boerewors", having never seen a sausage made let alone had a go myself.

Anyway, I introduce to you, 5kg of Venison and Mead Boerewors !! (apparently Boerewors has brandy in it but I didn't have any, so home brew mead it was).

Seemed to pass muster ......
Unfortunately it was raining so they had to be cooked on the hotplate rather than the wood Braai

I was told as a kid that if you can peel it, you can eat it....... Apparently you cannot peel a toadstool???
Personally, I don't eat fungi so have never put it to the test, nor can I verify the validity of the advice given.

If you find a good source I want to know too. Mushrooms can be notoriously difficult to identify, and safe species can look identical to toxic species. I did a bit of mushroom collecting of the magic variety and one of the ways to identify them is to take a spore print to see the color of the spores. You might need to go through some annoying binomial keys to get a good grasp on the features to look for. Boletes are probably your best bet at ensuring you dont pick up something toxic. Go for birch bolete! https://fungalguide.landcareresearch...x?Group=Bolete

Ive eaten the bright red fly agaric before. Need to boil them to get toxins out before frying. Tastes pretty good. However, like the name suggests, the fungi attracts a lot of flies. There are almost always maggots everywhere in them.

Field mushrooms are pretty safe. The only poisenous one that looks the same and grows in similar places have pure white gills. So as long as you avoid those you are all good.
