you dont even know how much i love your channel, im 13 and got into fungi at the begginning of quarantine. I now grow mushrooms, forage them, and have a tiktok where i make vids of me cooking them. Your channel started my love of fungi and i have seen almost all your videos. Thank you very much. :D
Fin, that's awesome! I'm loving growing and eating mushrooms I've never had before. But I'm 50 and semiretired, so it's far less impressive. At 13, I believe I was mainly focused on being a twerp. Maybe you will be a successful mushroom farmer, chef, or mycologist some day. Or maybe someone who has a lifetime of growing tasty and healthful mushrooms as a badass hobby.
Always great content, I ordered your line of mushroom extract powders Friday and received everything yesterday (tuesday) 4 days..... Not what I was expecting, time wise. Appreciate the dedication to quality content and products. You have earned a faithful customer.
Hi! Great video. We eat a lot of verpa bohemica in Italy. We first boil it for 45 minutes and then discard the water. After, we cook the boiled verpas as we would do with other mushrooms.
It would probably be good to include the most easily confused agaricus mushroom, the agaricus xanthoddermus. It looks like the other agaricus mushrooms, but when pressed, it becomes yellow.
Regarding the mystery termite mushroom with a taproot: "A radicate Oudemansiella species, called “Heipijizong” or “Black Termite Mushroom”, has been widely cultivated in China in the past few years. It was regarded as either the European O. radicata or the North American O. furfuracea or even species of Termitomyces. This study aims to clarify the taxonomic position of this economically important mushroom. Phylogenetic analyses of “Heipijizong” and other related Oudemansiella species were carried out using ITS and nrLSU ribosomal RNA gene regions. Based on both morphological and molecular data, “Heipijizong” was identified as Oudemansiella raphanipes. Our study indicated that O. raphanipes possesses both 2-spored and 4-spored basidiomata. Detailed morphological descriptions and illustrations are provided for it."
Matsutake are delicious. I was weary at the price when I first came across them in a Japanese supermarket. But once I tried them I realized they were worth every penny. Just watch out for Chinese grown, Ive had them before and they were heavily discounted. They lacked flavor. I guess I would describe the consistency to be similar to shitake and the flavor to be earthy and almost meaty. I do not remember cinnamon nor pine.
Thank you for what you are doing with all the variety content! I grew my first oyster mushrooms because of your cold water lime pasteurization video and blog.
Picked a dozen Matzi's or pine mushroom yesterday. Just starting here in Washington state. Very tasty adds flavor to many dishes.. we also got blue chanterelles, butter hedge hog, bolets , and a chicken of the woods. Great day
Im in love with the amanita mushrooms. Gorgeous pieces and the orange and red ones are all safe to eat if cooked properly (boil 20min and discard water). Tasty too if I may saw so!
Your vides got so much better over the years. The content was fire since day one but your production really stepped up big times. Huge fan of your work!
Good information and well presented! Enjoy watching your local content. You've been a great resource as I dive into this rabbit hole. Can you do something about fungi's such as those popular in Asian cooking which are flat and 'rubbery'? Black fungus, cloud ear, white cloud are common bag names of dried varieties I've used. Are any cultivatable or gatherable in our areas?
i wish we had as many different species of wild edibles here in new zealand.we do have the horse mushroom and they grow quite large but getting them before the bugs is pretty much impossible.the puffballs only grow small over here by the time they get to the size of my fist,which isnt very big,they are past their use by date
I will say wild Agaricus do have a stronger flavor than grocery store mushrooms. I have found matsutake or a lookalike, it does smell like cinnamon, but I found the flavor to be less pronounced. I used it in soup, however, I found out later the preferred way to eat them is roasted.
just go out hiking in any park, wooded area etc...here in Florida they grown right in the grass by the sidewalks, or a short trek off the path in the parks...look for fallen trees
Here in Washington state we eat many verpa.. true not as tasty as morel.. but plenty good.. in fact the commercial buyers buy them and in recent years price has been around 10$
@@georgefairweathermoonlight4 yeah i was assuming from orginal comment it was a type of honey mushroom. Did you know the largest organism on teh planet is a honey mushroom mycellium that's in southeast oregon, and has essentially destroyed an entire forest? Cool stuff!
Dear FCM, We can appreciate mushrooms for their culinary or medicinal qualities, but also for their beauty, their strangeness, their luminosity. For us, this form of life so strange, so foreign to our species, and also a source of knowledge and a way of life. He invites us to enter Nature, to learn from a rotten log, a grassy meadow, an undergrowth conducive to meditation. It is also close to us, because it is a way of life and culture. Our asceticism, our pleasure, our spirituality. We send you our grateful friendship from the Paris region!
you don't need all the whoosh and pop sound effects and all the gimmick graphics flying around, you could use way less. Your content is already top notch without all that and it makes it look like you're trying too hard. Also anyone reading this you shouldn't just go eating mushrooms like he's suggesting. you need to be 100 percent sure by an expert what you're looking at. there are a LOT of poisonous lookalikes that could kill you.

Can’t ever know too much about the many wonderful fungi of the world, as always thanks for this one!
Thanks for watching!!

I love how there's a fungus genus literally called "Phallus"
lol, ya easy to remember I guess!
Thank you for a very interesting video!

sweet, lots of turkey tail here in FL...found one porcini..wish there had been more, it was delicious
Great finds!
im in eastern washington and we don't get as nice of a haul of fall mushrooms :( we dont really get chanterelles over here at all, it's sad
however, we do get alot more morels in the spring so i guess there's that lol
Im in love with the amanita mushrooms. Gorgeous pieces and the orange and red ones are all safe to eat if cooked properly (boil 20min and discard water). Tasty too if I may saw so!
8:50 so cool that those teeth spring back instead of falling out at the slightest touch like the hedgehogs' would haha
Sarcadon don't mess around! haha, great point though, never really thought of that before.
Damn, should have got some glowing mushrooms for Halloween!
That long taproot was crazy!
I'm new to the channel but I am really enjoying the content and editing
Thanks for being here M G!!

Thank you! Great info! Love 🍄
There's another edible fungus that's related to corn smut that grows on the roots of Chinese wild rice.
I'd love a good dedicated video to amanita muscaria! Also the variety such as guessowii

i'd love to hear more about the glowing shrooms
Every time I compost spent corn cobs I get these crazy fungi growing from them
Hey! I'm interested in Parrot mushrooms!
1) We eat Verpa Bohemica in Bohemia for ages ! :)
2) I tried clasic PF tek for Panellus Stipticus and I had pretty richly glowing mycelium :)

The meadow mushroom is delicious! In Switzerland they say: don't take them in proximity of a forest, then you are safe.
Try Collybia albuminosa for the termite mushroom
How did you preserve that reishi on your wall? Did you paint it with lacquer? Thanks!
Hi there, thanks for all the content but what's more important:
What's the source of all the awesome t shirts?
LOL. So many different places! Check out "Closet Of Mysteries" for the spore print shirt
I like the Cape Russula
Love theses videos
These all look amazing and I would love to hunt for a few myself, where were you when you shot this video to find all these?!
just go out hiking in any park, wooded area etc...here in Florida they grown right in the grass by the sidewalks, or a short trek off the path in the parks...look for fallen trees
What would be a good book to start to learn about mushrooms or group of books I should look into ?
Here in Washington state we eat many verpa.. true not as tasty as morel.. but plenty good.. in fact the commercial buyers buy them and in recent years price has been around 10$
nice! it really seems like it depends on where you are at...
that's just not accurate lol I'm also in washington and everyone i hunt with leaves them. I've tried them, and they're not very good at all.
I swear this guy is Tom Keen from blacklist. It always trips me out
LOL had to go look that up-
@@FreshCapMushrooms Amazing content though! Thanks so much
Nicely done
Button mushrooms are really stale in taste, compared to the delicious meadow mushroom!
Yo i looooove Huitlacoche!
Do you have any genetics you're down to trade?
@@BaltimoresBerzerker I don't, sadly
Appreciation to share your experience, please maintain sharp and surplus prosperous excessively, Best intentions, :):)🍄🍄🍄
I want to eat corn smut. This is super expensive and rare to find.
Mushroom lemonade is the best lemonade.
I have tried Matsutake and honestly didn't really enjoy it. the scent is amazing however.
Do you sell mushrooms in the US?
I found Matsutake, they are very bítter. in South of spain
Listen Les Claypool album Of Fungi and Foe!
Good.
Did l miss the mushroom for insomnia? Can you pls mention it here
Amanita muscaria is being studied for it, briefly mentioned the potential medicinal benefits but will have to dive into it in another video!
we have an interesting mushroom here in NZ, its eatable it glows in the dark and it can kill pine trees!
An edible that eats pine?? What's the name?
@@BaltimoresBerzerker the maori name harore, Armillaria novae- zelandiae or honey mushroom
