Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 вер 2024
- Pheasant backs or dryads saddle are one of the best eating wild mushrooms around! A mild and versatile mushroom that can go in any meal, or just eaten by themselves! They are great sautéed or boiled, or baked. For all you survival folks out there, next time you’re foraging in the woods, see if you can find some, they are very easy to identify! Guitar Slinger approved!

Perfect. Thank you for sharing this. 👀 ‼️
Great video. Informative! Just got back with a bag of morels and pheasant backs. Wish ramps grew around here. Scrambled eggs with ramps and morels is one of my favorites. Time to try these pheasant backs. Ive always passed on these when morel picking but not anymore. Theres probably a couple hundred lbs of these where I pick. Thanks
Thanks for checking out my video! :) Yeah, these babies are delicious, and sounds like you found a honey hole! Best of luck this season...I really appreciate you took the time to leave a comment! ROCK ON!
My friend just came back with some morals phesant and ramps !!!
Very informative !!! First time having some def feel more confident 😉 thanks my guy
So we tried this today... absolutely delicious 🤤 thanks 🙏🏾
Awesome, I am really glad you liked it! 😀 I recently posted another video cooking them with some Wild Leeks/Ramps... ua-cam.com/video/i3eCcB99hn8/v-deo.html Thank you for leaving a comment, as well as trying out my recipe. Hopefully you will like this recipe too...
Rock on!! 🤘🏻
Your the 3rd video I've watched about cooking these mushrooms and out of all 3 videos you are the only one that obviously did some research before cooking these... good god it took me 30seconds of reading wikipedia to figure this stuff out, i don't get how these people don't know what you or me or anyone access with the internet doesn't know?
+J When it comes to wild mushrooms, one can’t be too careful. Though, I cook these about a dozen different ways, I still prefer them just fried in butter with a little salt and pepper. These were mostly too big, I like them about the size of a softball or smaller.
There are lots of videos on the subject of cooking them, but a lot of people don’t clean them correctly...or at all :/ Mine had no bugs, or I would have soaked in saltwater to clean them a little better...
Thanks for the comment... 😎
What would be the effect of using dry white wine instead of chicken broth? I like doing this with morels but have never tried it with Dryad's Saddle.
Nice!!
That’s looks so delicious !
+PROY It was! Thanks a million for watching, and taking a moment to leave a comment! Rock on 🤘🏻😎
Guitar Slinger, would it be beneficial to save the scraped spores and scatter them back in the woods?
Chris Lassaline Not 100# sure, but I would say, I don’t think they would finish making spores, I would think it would dry right up or rot. But, can’t hurt though...never know. 😎🤙🏻
Found one on my tree today.. I remember you did a video so I looked for it.. did you leave facebook bud?
JDOGMACK75 Thanks for looking me back up, I also shot another one recently....the link is in the description and another link at the end of the video.
Yeah, I left Facebook almost 2 years ago now....really peaceful these days...lol Who is this? 😉
@@guitarslingerkitchen I dont really want to say my name in here, but I was in a band as well, and I'm the one who gave you the contact with my cousin on the tri tip steak at your local meat market, he is my cousin
Gotcha, yep, I know who you are :) Good to hear from you. Everything is good, as good as it can be I guess...lol Hope all is well on your end bro. Looks like we got out of the music business just in time...we would have lost all our gigs this year which would have sucked had I had the year booked up; which was usually the case. Normally I would have the next year booked by November of the previous year... :/ That unexpected loss would have gone over like a lead balloon 🎈
Anyway...you take care bro, and be sure and check out that other video :) ROCK ON 🤘🏻
Yes, great idea, a little fresh thyme, or fresh nutmeg with a heavy cream sauce, all kinds of variations you could do! - ROCK ON!!
Thank you!
I’m really glad you found my video helpful! Thanks for watching... 😎 🤘🏻 Rock on!
My man!! Good job
+Sandra Haworth Awesome 👏 Thanks for watching!!
Can you not dehydrate the tougher parts and then powder it? Can you just powder the woody parts?
+DivaBClub I’ve never dried any, that sounds like that would be a good way to use up the parts you can’t eat in soups and stews :) Thanks for the great idea, and thanks for watching!!
I dry my extra morels for the rest of the year,any tips for preserving the dryad's saddles?
+MaynardSaves I have never tried to dry them, I wish I could be more help...let me know if you find a good way...I usually eat whatever I find the same day or so. Morels sound great, I gotta get out and get some soon... :)
Not sure what part of the country your in but in michigan its morel time!
I've been reading about drying Dryad's Saddle's tough parts. Yes, you can, then powder them. I plan on doing this with the first batch I've just picked. Then giving away the powder for Christmas to family. Supposed to have amazing flavor.
If these are soaked over night (total 20 hours) in salt water along with morels , are they still okay to use/eat/preserve?
+Tara Weldon When eating wild mushrooms always test a small amount before eating them. Just in case…but for me I don’t preserve, unless it’s in dried form. But, I rarely find enough to preserve. I prefer to eat all my mushrooms within 24 hours of picking.
Soaking in salt water is fine, kills and or drowns insects (extra protein though) 😉
Hope this helps…
I just found a few of these while morel hunting in Wisconsin! I'm still skeptical of eating other mushrooms I find because of how many poisonous look-alikes there are, you have any tips on making sure you have the right pheasantback? I just picked one
+Seeds of the Wayside Always study the bottom of a mushroom as much as the top, as well as stems, these ate polypore mushrooms, they have no gills, instead it looks like coral kinda. I have never found a look alike for these, but, never eat a mushroom unless you know 100% what it is. Even if you know 100% what it is, only consume a small amount and wait a few hours to a day to see if you have any reactions. These are delicious mushrooms and well worth eating. Remember where you found them, remember what kind of tree they were on, and never pick them all, so they drop spores for next year in the same place.
Hope this helps…
