Wonder how they stuff them?

Do they wait till mushrooms are hungry then feed them?

LOL! I will have to ask my daughter this ,as she is the one that made them for the holidays.
 
I love to eat mushrooms too. I have never hunted for edible mushrooms. They have an edible forest hike that I would like to take some day.

I do go hunting for a mushroom called a Birch Polypore. While they can be eaten (non-toxic) they are not good tasting or used for that purpose. When dried they make great fire starter. We use them for that for our winter fires. We are surrounded by Birch out here so they are plentiful.

So that is what you call those mushrooms ! When I was in Maine with my family I saw some the looked big enough for my grandchild to use for a seat. I should tell my son in law b/c he goes to the cabin in the winter . Do have to dry them out first before using them in a fire ?

Yes, they do need to be dried out before use. When dried they are like burning cardboard.

Be sure to use a good guide to check what you have are birch polypores. There are many shelf mushrooms that would emit toxic spores and fumes when dried and burned.

Oh then I better not suggest this to my SIL , I don't want him picking the wrong kind to burn.
 
The Chanterelles were really good once again. I had quite a few left over so I froze them. We shall see how that works out. Next on my list are Morels. They appear in the spring around here. :D
