I never felt confident to touch this family of mushroom but this video has helped with the check list to identify

Classic British weather. Video starts with beautiful sunshine and twenty minutes later, pisssing wi'h rain.

I picked a "Horse Mushroom" off of a church lawn - it had the characteristic aniseed smell and pink - cream gills. No bright yellow stains - I ate it in my morning omelette a week ago !

Very thorough, helpful information for the forager! Thank you!

Brilliant this. For years I thought I was picking macro mushrooms in my local moor-edge pasture and thanks to your films I recently decided they are in fact, probably horse mushrooms....cog-wheel, almond/aniseed smell, etc. Watching your deliberations here is relatable to how I altered my IDs. 👍

Thank you, I just picked some of these today and are about to cook them. I last picked them as a child 50 years ago and am very grateful for the confirmation that my instincts were right. Incidentally I found them on the edge of an inner city graveyard xx

@e.s.lavall9219 11 месяцев назад

Staining looks pale brownish yellow to me. Thanks for this video, agaricus is one genus I'm not very confident foraging for but I feel better knowing I don't have to know what it is to know if it's edible or not

@MarkyBigSmoke 11 месяцев назад

Fascinating! Thank you

I've seen many Agaricus mushrooms but are not sure how to ID them. This is good info, it helps.

Just had this mushroom in the jar for 12 hours after a unsuccessful 8hour dehydrate and the most incredible cherry blossom aroma coming from these.

@alexis1156 8 месяцев назад

Recently i found some agaricus campestris. People undervalue agaricus because it's easily cultivated. But it's an excellent mushroom. The fact that it's cultivated doesn't detract from it's actual value as a mushroom. Just like pioppini.

@imanderdumme8706 11 месяцев назад

Hello Imam hossein be with you ❤️

@balbalaroche2652 9 месяцев назад

Great information. Thank you. Do agaricus exist in a pale yellow/pumpkin color? They don't stain,they grew on a grassy landscape, and they have a skirt. The stipe has the color of the cap and the gills and spores are light brown. Thank you from n.y.

@PapaOutdoors238 9 месяцев назад

Throughly enjoyed your precise information on these mushrooms. Very pleased. Question: in a so-called fairy ring, are the mushrooms all the same or is there different mushrooms that make up the ring. Thank you so much.

@queenielouweekly3160 9 месяцев назад

They are the same kind of mushroom.

Ace video, thanks ! I've been trawling through the identification vids for a while now... On this one, I'm trying to make notes and rewatching... but.... At the start of the video you say you can both clearly see it's an agaricus, but I'm not sure where genus identification ends and safety identification begins.... from what I've noted: [ground dwelling] + [no volva] + [pink or brown gills] + [pendulous skirt] ==> Agaricus Is the genus confirmed, for UK environments, with those four traits ? Do we have to worry about any other features like cap/stipe colours/textures to identify genus ? And after that, we can starting doing : - bruising tests (red automatically is safe) - if it smells OK, AND there's no yellow, then it's OK ? (are there any that fail to bruise yellow due to age and that that smell nice, but are doubtful?) Is that summing it up correctly? Thanks for these !

@coldeb8911 8 месяцев назад

But as the old foragers saying goes “If in the slightest doubt, leave it out”… Thats why I only ever do my mushroom foraging in supermarkets, so many are similar and if even the experts occasionally have to consult each other, and practically often need to do a minute autopsy on some of them to decide if they are a poisonous variant or not, thats enough for me to go to Tesco’s instead tbh…but I am absolutely fascinated by this subject, especially the poisonous ones 🤣

@petemc808 11 месяцев назад

I found quite a few of these today. Any cooking ideas for this giant mushroom?

@natureisallpowerful 11 месяцев назад

Garlic butter on toast. Youre welcome 👍

@WildFoodUK1 11 месяцев назад

Use like normal mushrooms but they are tastier so just fried with butter they are really good.

@steammachine3061 11 месяцев назад

Ahhhh. I always wondered why, on occasion, I get an almond scent from a horse mushroom. Very rarely, but it has thrown me on occasion. Iv paused the vid so my next question may already be answered. But would the Prince have the same chemicals, but often, the higher concentration of that would account for its very almondy scent? Scent can be a funny thing to explain as well. Often the word mealy is used and I'm like "not a clue what that smells like" but like st George's what someone explains as mealy' I would give a good sniff and think it smells like the interior of a shoe shop. For other people, they've mentioned a smell of something a bit ruder, lol

@WildFoodUK1 11 месяцев назад

Yes the prince has the same chemicals I believe, and for the St Georges mushroom we say sawdusty, but I think the best off the cuff description I've heard is that they smell like the bit of an envelope you lick to stick it down, that was from Lindsey in the office when she first had a sniff of one :)

@navystreak 11 месяцев назад

I'm a chemist in the fragrance industry. Perhaps the chemical you are thinking about is benzaldehyde?

@WildFoodUK1 11 месяцев назад

I think that's what Kerry mentioned. Will check with her.

@Will0wFire 11 месяцев назад

When smelling mushrooms, my first thing is, does it smell good? If not, then i discard ths mushroom instantly. If it smells good, then if im not sure what im looking at, then I'll take home and investigate. But never eat first time. A bit simplistic, but i find smell is so subjective. And mine isn't as keen as it was before i got covid. 😢

@WildFoodUK1 11 месяцев назад

I'm sure you know but for other people reading the comments. This only really applies to the Agaricus genus and is not a good test for other potentially toxic mushrooms.

@Will0wFire 11 месяцев назад

@WildFoodUK1 Of course. I've been foraging since I was a child, and in a way im the worst kind of forager because I go based on memory and what I was taught as a child. So I've learned so much more from your channel, and I'm very grateful for your videos!!

@daviddunnmusic8323 11 месяцев назад

Last year I found 2 massive mushroom rings probably 50m in diameter containing hundreds of beautiful mushrooms . Unfortunately they were all yellow stainers😢

@WildFoodUK1 11 месяцев назад

Impressive to look at though!

@Pilzmaxe 10 месяцев назад

They say Agaricus Augustus smells like almond or marzipane but to me it smells 100% anis. Like the chinese dish "hong shao rou".

@louiseed1997 11 месяцев назад

What creature does the boring hole in the mushrooms, I am seeing it a lot this year, is it caterpillars, birds, or maggots? :D

@WildFoodUK1 11 месяцев назад

mostly slugs

@louiseed1997 11 месяцев назад

@@WildFoodUK1 Hehe! I will need to get in like Flynn next time Atilla is up in Scotland..The amount of amazing has been good up here, lots of toxic stuff, and half eaten boletes! The Fairy ink caps, amaze me,gone without a trace then, POW back again, the cute mushroom!

@j.h.6672 11 месяцев назад

By the way, the best way to distinguish these is to bite a little bit, chew, and spit it out completely. I'm not joking. If it's poisened you'll get a little phenol poisoning which is not dangerous. You'll get a bit high but at the same time there will be change in the heart rhythm. It'll last for 3-4 hours. Also, there might develop even disgust at these mushrooms even on smell.

@mrsenstitz 11 месяцев назад

Yellow stainers smell of listerine.

Silvaticus or macrosporus /arvensis.

@PapaOutdoors238 9 месяцев назад

@WildFoodUK1 9 месяцев назад

each ring is just one species as they are fruiting from one underground organism, but separate rings can come very close and so it can appear that 2 mushrooms are in one ring.
