The end of the season

...at least for certain mushrooms and fungi in the forest.

I took tons of photos of various fungi. They are absolutely fascinating in their colours and shapes and their various hiding places. Here's one of my favourite pictures:

Mushroom Schnitzel

Or to be more precise - crumbed mushroom slices.

After a good walk in the forest, mushrooming, you will be hungry. Clean your pine mushrooms (you have brushed them clean in the forest anyway, but they may need a little wipe with a damp cloth), cut them in approx. 5mm thick slices, then crumb them.

Fry in some butter and/or oil. Serve with veggies or just some tzatziki. We had them with leeky mashed potatoes and sautéed carrots and celery. Yum!

Wild Mushrooms...

...for wild people.Now is the time to go mushroom hunting. But if you are not sure which ones are edible and which ones make you go all funny (or worse) - grab a friend who knows! There is a place and time for experimenting - this is not one of them! Learn more about mushrooming on Adelaide Kitchen Gardeners.
