Hello All:
Anyone here pick wild fungi for the plate?
I am always on the lookout for edible mushrooms when I am hunting or scouting. As a rule this time of year the chicken of the woods are out but in all my haunts they are absent. This mushroom when cooked right does taste a tad like chicken breast.
Another one I look for is maitake or hen of the woods. Again for some reason they aren't out where I have found them in the past.
I have noticed quite a few poisonous ones. We are having a wetter than normal late summer. I figured that there would be an abundance of edible mushrooms but it seems to be not the case.
