    We've had good luck with matsutake this year(our first year hunting for mushrooms lol)
    The ones we normally find are #3/#4s and exactly 1 #1. The part you were talking about is called the veil, it's a feature that's shared with amanita species which are toxic and other mushrooms like agaricus which can also be toxic, which is why it's considered a "hard" mushroom to forage for. Especially since they're usually near each other. I've noticed that they tend to be near HUGE conifers at the base or within 10-20 ft of it but I know they can also be with deciduous trees like beech.

    Just trim off the brown and soak in salt water ... The wormy fall to the bottom. #2-5s are great to dehydrate. If you dry sautee the water out first then sautee with butter etc, they are great. Water doesn't hurt them when you dry sautee first before adding oil or butter
