Re: Mushrooms

Can you eat that one raw? I suppose you could really.....I adore raw mushrooms. Ooh imagine you treated it like bread, and put things in the middle of it like a sarnie. I could make a packed lunch with that, what a cool idea!

don't wash, don't peel, flash fry, a shot of brandy to burn off juices, a glug of creme fraiche, serve.

Oh good Lord, I've never seen anything like that! Just imagine, a slice of mushroom served with a chicken sauce. Sounds completely the wrong way round

Re: Mushrooms

Shaggy Ink Caps are one of my favourites but they do need to be used soon after gathering as, otherwise, they auto-digest themselves and you are left with a black sticky mess!

But they do taste simply divine with a bacon omelette.

Another thing to know about them - do not drink any alcohol for about 24 hours after eating them - it can cause a disastrous reaction!



Not to be confused with the Common Ink Cap - which is poisonous.
