The common ones you find in the store year-round taste NOTHING like the more exotic or wild grown types. The reason they arent as widely available--even if they are cultivatable like oyster mushrooms--is due to how quickly they break down and how difficult transportation is. You cant pile them high in boxes because they will be crushed and bruised. I promise you, these types are worth looking for over the common white button mushrooms. They dont taste anything like mushrooms youve had before. Lightly fry pulled oyster mushrooms in a little butter and they taste sort of like buttered chicken.

I used to hate mushrooms all my life. and it got really frustrating because my nana had dried mushrooms almost all the time and they smelled so amazing but I couldnt stand them cooked, I felt they lost the flavour and texture. few months ago I had a shift as a dishwasher at a steak house, and I felt a really good smell. it was some sauce made from some really small mushrooms. the cooks had no idea what shrooms they were and Ive been trying to recreate that sauce with no luck: (

A good percentage of people cannot smell truffles at all, like my husband. Some people find the smell very attractive and some, like myself, find the odor repulsive, to me they smell like sickness. I looked it up, and truffles smell like boars spit and are meant to attract female pigs to eat them and spread the spores through their feces. The most overpriced, disgusting smelling food in the world, in my opinion.

Trufles are disgusting. Theyre not good and theyre super expensive. The only reason people want them is because theyre pricy. Its like eating a pizza thats made of expensive cheese, expensive meat that clashes in taste with the cheese, and then a dozen layer of gold foil. Its just not good. Its just pointless and exists solely for the rich to show how rich they are. Nothing more. Trufles are a scam and theyre bad.

2: 34 Gordon says that the truffle is the most expensive fungus by weight, which for the pound to price purchase is untrue. Yarsagumba in the mountainous regions of Tibet and Nepal generally have a higher price. Now, some abnormally-sized truffles have sold at a much higher price than the pound to price rate, but I like to consider those an outliet, especially because Gordon said, -by weight.

Is no one surprised that the mushroom expert is storing truffles in rice instead of some better way? (If you think rice is the best way to store truffles go do some research and youll find out the rice absorbs all the aroma out of your truffles) Only if you are using the whole truffle in under 2 days I guess rice is fine, otherwise is just not efficient.

I love mushrooms, especially morels. My father used to make the most delicious creamy sauce with them. Ive never had a chance to try truffles, though. You cant really get them from any shop here, only order them online and they are so damn expensive, especially for buying sight unseen.

I know this guy that sells some mushrooms he handpicked in these little baggies. sells em by the gram. Swallow a few down ya and for the next 4-6hours the taste is so vibrant and exciting it will have you speaking to god whilst chasing a unicorn down the road whilst wielding a toboggan

Its beyond me how people from the Western countries still have no idea about existence of such mushrooms as boletus edulis, imleria badia or suillus luteus. This guy claims to be an expert and yet I didnt see any of those in his store. In Poland we eat that delicious shit whenever we can.
