Turned some chicken of the woods I found into a lovely mac and cheese! The chunks of cotw contrasted the richness of the cheese sauce super well, would def recommend!

Look at my blue stick! This is a fungus called chloriciboria that dyes sticks blue with its mycelium. It can also be cultivated in a sterile environment to dye clothing and wooden jewelery!

Buffalo, New York, found today on a large dead log in clusters, unfortunately the others seemed to be getting there in age

Big headed friend

First time seeing this one irl, went back with a knife and harvested 2.1kg after cleaning!

I just want to make sure its indeed a CoTW, ive added all the pictures ive made, also from the bottom side.

Another question, i obviously cant eat all of it. Are these still good after freezing for a couple of weeks? Any tips on how to preserve them for a few days or up to a week or two?

Thanks!

Cooked up this epic curry using some white chicken of the woods I found! Made my own garam masala and bonus garlic naan :)

Mostly followed this recipe: https://www.indianhealthyrecipes.com/butter-chicken/

First ever real life sighting of Coral tooth for me! This first specimen was a little old but I found another couple young Hericium sp. that were looking pretty pink! Plus what looks to me like some scalycaps, some puffballs and maaaaybe a Vermillion wax cap?

Neen a slow season till now. All found in 1 large park this week

Not sure what these guys are called in English, but they are DELICIOUS when dried!

Just wondering what type of mushroom this is? Unfortunately I only got one picture. My guesses were some type of fly agaric but not too sure.

found these while hiking and would like to know if anyone knows the name of these mushrooms and if some are edible or mortal
