OK, so you all know that I forage and harvest wild mushrooms. I RIGIDLY stick to a few varieties of which I am 100% certain.
Well, last weekend my brother told me about a spot he knew of a decades ago before he moved away.
So, on Sunday I went there only to find a shitload of them! Of course I went and picked a few (dozen) of the
Chicken Fat Suillius.
I have never seen nor would I have picked them were I to see them alone, but I did.
Last night, my father and fried them up in an egg batter and
Kentucky Colonel fry mix. OMFG ... They were absolutely awesome!
Of course I have no pics of the meal (wine was involved), but here they are with the rest of the haul from the weekend.
The bags on the left are the (Grifola frondosa) AKA Maitake, Hen of the Woods, Rams Head, Sheep's Head, Cloud Mushroom, Dancing Mushroom.
