The one thats favourite colour is red likes to eat the mushrooms that they dont talk about for legal reasons and thinks he is saving a princess(his ex) from a big turtle(her bf)
@@Rhalmarius Can you feel your heart burning? Can you feel the struggle within? The fear within me is more than anything your soul can make. As said before, you cannot kill me in a way that matters
lmfao this reminds me of that old meme or story or whatever about the pizza place that was a front for the mob but actually got the family out of crime bc the pizza place was so much more profitable. doubt u stopped the magic ones tho lol
I have a feeling he doesn't only grow gourmet mushrooms. He has to have a secret room with some magic going on in there. I mean, if I had all this apparatus, I would.
Also faux tempeh (not soy beans), and natto, and faux natto (not soybeans). I want to know what makes a soy bean substitute suitable for tempeh, and for natto culture.
I love that magnet spinner. I had one in chemistry class back at university. I wish I could get one for my stove top. It would be great for cooking soups that need to really really not burn.
For boiling a pure liquid, like milk, there used to be a noisy old timey solution of a thick round flat glass that covers a lot of the bottom, and keeps clattering (moving the milk in the bottom a lot) to prevent burning. How effective it was in practice i don't know, as i have never used it
I've often considered getting a hotplate with magnetic stirring functionality for culinary purposes. I'm kinda surprised there's not more overlap between chemistry tools / apparatus & kitchen gadgets, since there's a huge amount of similarities between the the two practices. Another thing with great kitchen potential are the ultrasonic cleaners (not just for cleaning, extractions & infusions).
Ran across a mushroom farm in South Korea. They had green houses full of pine logs leaned against wooden supports and each log was bursting with shiitake mushrooms. Talked to the farmer there and they create inoculated plugs that they then place into holes drilled into the logs. I had only seen the method of growing mushrooms shown here so I was blown away to see this large scale mushroom farming on my trip there.
Same here! I would beg my parents to take a stroll in the forest after a heavy rain, so that I could take pictures of mushrooms and then try to identify them. I still have the massive mycology encyclopedia with a bunch of notes and pictures I drew, and checkmarks on the mushrooms I found. Good times.
@@FakeMaker aw man!! i wish i still had my childhood mycology book 😭😭 i remember being so excited when i first spotted mushrooms growing out of a tree! good times indeed! i still get super happy seeing shelf fungi on dead wood
Keep it up, kids! I discovered mycology at fifty, when I retired in France. It's been a great occupation for nearly thirty years. I love leading mushroom and wild salad walks.
Us Slovaks love our mushrooms, but we generally forage them. Mushroom foraging is passed from generation to generation, like which mushrooms you can eat, which are poisonous, which grow where and when etc. I learned mushroom foraging from my grand grandma, she was 87, we grabbed handmade baskets and strolled around the forest the day after a heavy rain. We got back with our baskets and pockets full of mushrooms of at least a dozen edible species. We spent the whole evening cutting them into thin strips to dry and store them. Every time I make a creamy mushroom soup from dried mushrooms, all I think about is my time I spent with her. If I ever have any descendands, mushroom foraging is one of the things I want to teach them. I really don't know why, but it just feels magical, everything from strolling through the forests, the smell of the fresh mushrooms, the time spent with family. My eyes are getting wet, someone's cutting onions in here.
@@FakeMaker I guess it is a slav thing, we also forage a lot of mushrooms here, I remember every weekend going in the forest with babushka and dedushka.
@@TheSlavChef Yeah, it feels like it's the norm in Slavic countries, but not so much elsewhere. I was dating a Chinese girl a few years ago, and when I told her the mushrooms in the soup were handpicked from a forest by me, she thought I was trying to poison her. She made me eat the soup first to make sure lol. Btw really nice channel, you got yourself a new subscriber.😄
I started this video thinking “I should start a fungi ranch” and ended thinking “I can’t believe I can usually find oyster mushrooms for $15/lb and I never have to worry that they won’t be there.”
@@darkhelmet12e47 fungi are surprisingly sensitive at times. Also, the fruiting bodies of fungi (mushrooms) decay at insane rates. You have mere days to harvest, distribute, and sell these mushrooms, and they essentially decompose by the second. In some truffle species, I believe they literally lose value by the hour as well and even start tasting worse in that time (and truffles cannot be cultivated like this). Any mushrooms which aren’t sold in that time are losses these small homegrown farmers have to cut. Some species like the aforementioned truffle and the matsutake ONLY grow under the most perfect of conditions as mycorrhizal fungi with plants, and some ONLY symbiosis with one type of plant in particular. Its really impossible for us randos in the youtube comment section to understand just how difficult it is to grow these strange, complex organisms in our homes, and in my opinion its a bit brash to jump to conclusions about the craft without first doing it ourselves with the same species.
Psilocybin, LSD, shrooms and ketamine are absolutely life changing substances that have so much potential to help people with mental health issues. 0:13
14:10 mushrooms are great bioaccumulators. They sequester heavy metals in specific proteins, which renders them completely harmless and allows mushrooms to survive even in very polluted areas. Of course this also means you have to be careful where you go foraging, since the heavy metals are released again once you eat the mushrooms ^^
This is why certain wild animals like pigs are radioactive in cherenobyl and surrounding regions, they eat the mushrooms that bioaccumulate the radioactive metals like cesium 137 and strontium 90.
So.. when people get into mushroom farming, they attempt to spread the mushroom further through advanced means of communication and evangelism... Are we entirely sure that the mushrooms aren't.. responsible for that drive to spread mushrooms?
No one ever accuses plants of this stuff. Look into that guy John Chapman, clearly an apple tree had grown into his brain and made him do it. That's why he wore a cooking pot on his head.
Since your videos are practically scientific food journals sometimes, it should then be worthwhile to point out that the steaming at 95 C and atmospheric presure *disinfects* the substrate, not sterilize. Sterilization involves killing of spores too which need an autoclave, that achieves a temperature of 121 C at 15 psi. Superheated steam in a pressure cooker basically.
@@GirthyNuts Yes. The key to sterilization is time, pressure, and heat. Using an autoclave drastically reduces time since it's pressurized, but that doesn't mean you can't sterilize without it. Large tubs like their steam sterilizer are typically used because you can store a lot more of it than in an autoclave
@@nope110 In order for the temperature of steam to reach 121C it has to be pressurized, steam is only 100C (boiling point of water) in an open environment (IE pot with no lid on a stove). To get to 121C it has to reach 1.1 BAR or about 15 PSI in a sealed vessel.
You should cover seitan, not sure if I spelled it right, but it's basically the entire gluten structure of a dough washed and strained out of the starches, that being flour.
"can you tell that hunter's a veteran? all the combat references?" i'm sure the "don't tread on me flag" has nothing to do with all the combat references...
@@kieranwhitton3671 As if to vote for a candidate means that the character of the voter can be divined instantly? Humans aren't that simple, man. You know what they say happens when you assume.
@@timdaniel9644 You might not be able to divine their exact character true but whenever I see a 'Don't Tread On Me' flag, it's always ended up belonging to a certain kinda person. :P
They DEFINITELY have a special chamber separately from the one showed in the video where they grow the "real" good sh...strong mushrooms they were referring to
I didn't realize how incredibly complicated it was to grow mushrooms. I have a new appreciation for one of my favorite ingredients that I love to cook with. Great video, Adam. Thanks!
Number one, rude. Number two, a lot people who use substances are usually pretty knowledgeable when it comes to their substance of choice, since it’s a matter of safety. If you know how your mushrooms are grown, what your weed should smell like, etc., you can choose better and safer products. Making your own can sometimes be safer if you don’t live in an area with access to good quality stuff.
@@XxjeffersonDkidxX Outrageous! No one can determine what other applications a vague slogan might have significance in. Not when the message is co-opted by the phallogocentric rich white supremacist powerful intersectionally oppressive and privileged class.
@@XxjeffersonDkidxX This *USED* to be a revolutionary flag but is now a libertarian thing. This is on the wikipedia page of the flag : Use as a libertarian symbol In the 1970s the Gadsden flag started being used by libertarians, using it as a symbol representing individual rights and limited government.[5] The libertarian Free State Project uses a modified version of the flag with the snake replaced with a porcupine, a symbol of the movement.[17][unreliable source?] Use as a Tea Party symbol Beginning in 2009, the Gadsden flag became widely used as a protest symbol by American Tea Party movement protesters.[18][19][20] It was also displayed by members of Congress at Tea Party rallies.[21] In some cases, the flag was ruled to be a political, rather than a historic or military, symbol due to the strong Tea Party connection.[22] Gadsden Flag flown in the area of riots during the January 6th, 2021 storming of the U.S. Capitol. Use as a far-right symbol The Gadsden Flag has also been used as a symbol by far-right groups and individuals.[23] In 2014, the flag was used by Jerad and Amanda Miller, the perpetrators of the 2014 Las Vegas shootings who killed two police officers and a civilian.[24] The Millers reportedly placed the Gadsden Flag on the corpse of one of the officers they killed.[25][26] The Gadsden flag was featured prominently in a report related to the January 6, 2021 storming of the United States Capitol. Thirty-four-year-old Rosanne Boyland was carrying one when she collapsed from an accidental drug overdose and died in the Capitol.[27][28] You can say anything you want about that flag, if I see one at your place, I'm gonna get the fuck outta here, cuz fuck that far right bs
As a biochemist who frequently works with bacteria and mammalian cell cultures, its remarkable how similar everything about this operation is to my day-to-day work. When the job requires growing something artificially, you've got to deal with the same problems, and Hunter is using almost the exact same set of solutions we do. It really is more lab than farm.
Mushrooms are a great option for vertical farming. No light needed, and they can grow very close together and yield delicious and nutritious food. One of my favorite foods of all time is simply just oyster mushrooms sauteed in butter until they're a little golden brown, and sprinkled with salt and pepper. They're delicious.
@@MaxS535 This is just factually wrong. Mushrooms are a great source of vitamins, antioxidants and can promote heart-health. They are known to be a useful source for folate.
@@connersweeney7758 some do contain quite a bit of certain proteins and minerals and stuff like that but most are not. Ik there are medicinal ones like turkey tail and lions mane but most mushrooms are not very nutritious, and if they are, they are not dense enough for it to become a reasonable alternative to a vegetable or meat
@@MaxS535 if you do a simple Google search you'll learn mushrooms, in most cases, are quite literally "extremely nutritional". They are the definitive best plant source of vitamin D. Saying other things are better does not take away the obvious fact that mushrooms are very healthy and low in calorie. This is my final comment as any Google search would make this information obvious.
i thought adam said " this has been shown in MY study" instead of "mice studies" and i was like yo when and how did adam get the authority to conduct neurological research? not doubting it tbh just questioning
Evidence that this guy consumes other things as just normal Mushrooms: 1. Don't tread on me flag at 3:00 2. Stickers on his machine at 3:49, especially the "Hemporum" Sticker 3. Psychadelic art on the top left at 8:16 4. Him believing in the "Power of the fungus" at 14:00 5. His GF at 14:20 got some Experience
You'll probably be in luck! Usually Adam's cooking video is related to that weeks previous science video. I'd wager he's gonna cook some mushrooms in a few days!
me, who has been growing for years now: these things are commonly sold by local growers to pizza shops, but i like to dehydrate and store mine to use in (mostly beef based) dishes.
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety and illicit pill addiction. Imagine carrying heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not in a couple years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
Please does anyone know where I can get them? I put so much on my plate and it really affects my stress and anxiety levels, I would love to try shrooms
I eat mushrooms, but when ever I see them not prepared I'm grossed out and get all tingly. They look so alien to me, similar to the way I feel about spiders just to a lesser degree.
As an undergrad, I was a researcher in a biochemistry lab, using yeast as a model organism. Yeast is a single-celled fungus, but multicellular yeast like these mushroom-makers love all the same stuff, so all these "good things" he's looking for in this video were *my* nightmare contaminations!
Videos like this make me want to grow my own mushrooms at home! I'm not vegetarian or vegan or anything, but I like mushrooms and the way that they can be given a lot of unique food textures based on preparation, so it seems like an easy, low-maintenance "home-grown" option for food sustainability. That and greens/herbs. Having a greens wall garden just seems pleasant. Of course, you'd need to keep the two farms separate, lol
That’s easy. Just wait until nighttime, get some bonemeal, and then the mushroom will become giant! After that, tear down the giant mushroom, and keep repeating until you have enough mushrooms. (Use mycelium to be able to do this during the day.) You can also wait for them to spread in the dark, but I don’t see how that method’s effective.
I'd cook them then eat them with the bread. The reason we don't like mold is because it's disgusting and mostly toxic. When it's good and safe, there's no problem.
I really got to give it to you Adam the last few months I have had a notification come up on my phone at 1:00 central time on the DOT every time you upload a video. So satisfying in man you really know how to hold a schedule! Appreciate the amazing content so many amazing recipes you've given us all!
Adammmmm, you gotta do a video on microdosing shrooms and cognitive plasticity 😩 I know that's that's tough sell for a sponsor but its a really intriguing topic.
That's in the subject of mushrooms but not in the subject of cooking/food history, which is what Adam focuses on. I have not looked it up, nor do I want too, but "cognitive plasticity" feels like a buzzword to me
@@flamingfossa my guy, Adam has marinaded meat so it looks blue and more recently started making his own pottery to boils grain he grew himself. He's super talented and I don't think the research would be totally out of his wheelhouse. It was just a little suggestion. I'd love to hear him cover it. He's so educational.
Pretty sure ur flooding their site with orders beyond their capacity lol last time I checked their grow kits they were out of stock of most a month or two ago they still are
Only in America could a southern gourmet mushroom farmer be explaining the methods of him, his girlfriend, and his lesbian grandmothers to an internet celebrity in front of both a Gasden flag and the star-spangled banner.
Sci show etc al kinda fall into the realm of pop science. I'd recommend Applied Science, thought emporium. Applied Science has some good recommendations under his following tab
I actually bought a huge grow kit in Vermont and had caps in 10 days. I had so much mushroom that I dried the mushrooms and have tried all sorts of new stuff because of all the dried mushrooms we got
These mushroom farmers are often "evangelists" as you put it for mushrooms because they had a life altering experience with psychedelic mushrooms. I speak from experience, the few times I did them it really did change my perspective on life. Not having done them for a few years, the feeling fades but I understand how these people hold mushrooms in such high regard.
@@gideonunger7284 What do you not understand? Many people have a life altering experience with psychedelic mushrooms, and then they fall in love with all mushroom species as a whole. Especially when they grew the psychedelic mushrooms themselves. The process of cultivating them and constantly learning about them becomes a passion. Like I said, I haven't did mushrooms in 3 years but all mushrooms still intrigue me to a certain degree.
@@gideonunger7284 Have you ever had a life altering experience with psychedelic mushrooms? If not, just shut up and acknowledge that what I'm saying is true..
