Ram's head lady's slipper ontario Videos

When I went to my friends' house in the summer of last year, we went in the forest behind her house and we found one of these. At the time I had no idea what it was haha, when we returned from the forest, we tore it up and had a fight with puffball pieces XD

Lycoperdon perlatum This is the latin name for a common puffball - the smaller cousin of this big one here on the vid, read the wikipedia article on this thing - it is not only edible, but has antimicrobial and antifungal nature - it is tasty too

Yw. Last year we had these everywhere, more than I had ever seen. this one was kinda small, I have found them over 18" across, probably weighing 10lb or better. If I find a true giant this season I will make a better vid.

I have only tried them fried with a batter and grilled a couple of different ways. I hear alot of people say you just have to find the right way that is good for you. Guess I just haven't found my way yet,lol.

To me it seems to depend on how you cook them. Can range from "moist cardboard", to a "mildly sweet shroom taste". The texture can also be a little weird. Peace

Looked like a nice fresh one. Not my favorite either, but probably a good mushroom for someone just getting into hunting. They remind me of tofu.

Yea, even the little ones are big. When I start seeing 4-5 lbers then I know other types of shrooms will be around.

They kinda remind me of soy tofu. There's definitely plenty of them around in the fall.

Great. I always wanted to find that one. Thanks for awesome video.

Last year I found one of them as big of 4 soccer balls

That's actually a pretty apt description. Peace

That's not a mushroom: That's a human skull.
