A blog about homesteading, homeschooling, self-sufficiency, and living in the country. Also a lot of ranting about..um..everything.
About Me
Country Wife
Wife to one, mom to four, and grandma to two of the sweetest angels ever. Striving to live a self-sufficient life, here in the deep, dark woods.

It's interesting that you'd post this, as a co-worker just "introduced" me to these. He asked if we had any on our homestead, but I'd never heard of them. Unfortunately, it's been too rainy and muddy to go up there and look for them since then.
Are they really good? If so, I may have to try them myself.
I think they taste a lot like portabella. I've had them fried, but they taste, well, fried. I prefer sauteed in butter.
This was actually our first hunt, as we've just never bothered to look for them before. On our property, they don't grow anywhere they are supposed to: under dead elms and apple trees. Instead, they just pop up in the yard right by the house. Weird.
