How to process amadou, from the horses hoof fungus.
The fommes fomentarius is a specious of bracket fungus that grows on both beech and birch here in the UK. We have used it for thousands of years for holding and transporting embers of a fire and for fire lighting.
In this video I show you how to separate the middle trama layer from the cuticle layer (outside surface layer) and the sporing tubes. We then boil until fluffy and dry out.
Enjoy this quick demonstration of how to process amadou from the horses hoof fungus and a quick flint and steel fire too.
