We picked a load of Shaggy Manes - they are best before they open up.Before picking them, feel if they are hard or mushy... and don't take the mushy ones.
They cook up fast, and if overcooked will turn gooey.They have a mild 'mushroomy' taste - very good with mixed vegetables.
We went out hunting Chantrelles for a few hours - it was a great day in the hills...
...but we only found 2 of the mushrooms we were after.
Oh well...
They cooked up FANTASTIC - definitely one of our favorites for eating.
