I think I found our community icon? Shaggy mane (Coprinus comatus)

  You mean this community tastes okay for 2 minutes and then it spoils and it's disgusting? 🙂

  I used to hunt for those mushrooms as a kid. I'd go out late in the morning in the fields closest to our house, pick the whitest of them, come back home quickly and my Mom would cook then for lunch. Enjoying those mushrooms was literally all about timing. That's how quickly those spoil.

  So... maybe not the best icon 🙂

    Isn’t this also the best thing about them?

    Sounds like a good time to me.

    Hahaha, didn’t mean to send a message 😆

    Whether it “spoils” is a matter of perspective, this guy has a recipe on making a Shaggy Ink Sauce: foragerchef.com/shaggy-mane-ink/

    It reminds of huitlacoche. I am curious if it equally delicious. I have only foraged them once and ate them fresh, but next time I want to try out this recipe.
