20 Edible Mushrooms I Can Identify Without Mistake. Part I

How to identify edible mushrooms for beginners. Safe mushroom hunting. Foraging wild mushrooms, without poisonous double, look alike mushrooms. Ediblemushrooms vs. look alike mushrooms. I know that some mushrooms can contain poison. Some mushrooms can be good but even small piece of other mushrooms can destroy my liver or kidney in just a few hours. It is really important to learn a lot about mushrooms from multiple sources before collecting and consuming wild fungi. In this video I am going to talk about mushrooms which I can easily identify or mushrooms with biological properties that are unique and I have very low chance to make mistake and be deceived with toxic mushrooms. I am only going to talk about wild mushrooms I collect and consume and which have no deadly poisonous double mushrooms. aging mushrooms for food, especially I am a beginner.
Step one: I never collect and consume mushrooms of Amanita family or mushrooms growing from volva. I always look for the volva at the base of the stem or wards on cap present. Amanita family most dangerous deadly poisonous fungi as Deadly cap or Destroying Angel. As a beginner I would not collect any gills mushrooms at All, except just a few I am going to talk about in this video later. Because of the very high chance to make a mistake.
Step two: I never use for food gills mushrooms with green spore print, such as Chlorophylum.
Step three: I avoid gills mushrooms belonging to Cortinaris, Hebeloma , Gallerina, Entoloma or Lepiota families. There are many poisonous mushrooms within this family that is really hard to identify without life long experience and microscopical features.
Step four: I never eat mushrooms that can glow in the dark, luminescent mushrooms.
Step five: I never collect and eat red or orange pore mushrooms belonging to Boletus family.
Step six: if I am trying to eat wild mushroom fist time, I always start with small amounts and cook mushrooms well throughly. I always keep one sample in the fridge uncooked in case of wrong identification, give 48 hours gap between eating another mushrooms species and I do not mixed different species mushrooms if consume them at first time. . #porcini #mushroom #mushrooms #bolete #growingmushrooms #mushroomgrowing #mycelium #foraging

A few minor corrections followed by a big one: Tapinella atrotomentosa is not poisonous, just very bitter, and is eaten here in Europe, pickled in vinegar. Hypholoma capnoides is a very tasty mushroom growing in europe and north america, so not all hypholoma are poisonous. The "blusher mushroom", Amanita rubescens (or Amanita novinupta in the north east of North America), is very easy to distinguish, also you can't do anything wrong with sect. Vaginatae (those with volva and without ring) or sect. Caesareae, so you really don't have to avoid genus Amanita at all. Armillaria sp are actually luminescent but very good to eat (also you're normally not in the situation to check if your mushrooms are luminescent when you're collecting). Suillelus sp and Neoboletus sp are red pored boletes, but very good to eat. Not all fungi are saprobionts. Boletus edulis, the mushroom you present while saying this, is a mycorrhizal symbiont. The Leccinoid fungi were split into two genera a few years ago. Now there is not only genus Leccinum, but also genus Leccinellum. Also, it's unfortunately not possible to ID Hydnum species without microscopy anymore, so you should not speak of Hydnum repandum, but of Hydnum sp. Finally and most important: Many of the mushrooms you collect (especially 2:54 and 5:30, but also 2:32, and other examples later in) are WAY past their prime. i really wouldn't eat them anymore if they looked that way. most intoxications come from eating too old mushrooms, not from eating the wrong species. also, you are doing educational work here and should have in mind that your audience will likely collect mushrooms that look even more questionable than the ones you collect, so you should only collect the best quality mushrooms in such videos, and certainly adress the topic of too old mushrooms causing food poisoning.

Your caution is definitely good, as mushrooms can indeed be deadly, but some of the rules you use are unnecessary.

[mariacristinaosorio]

The video is a little confusing, she's talking about some mushrooms and showing others

[christinejoymagbanua]

please use human language, not mushrooms language, it is so hard for beginners to understand 🙂
