Mushrooms, which are considered conditionally edible, grow in sparse mixed forests, often at the edges or at the edge of the forest. Collect them from July to September.
It is easy to distinguish a duvet from other mushrooms by a thick, velvety, fleshy hat, which can be olive-brown, brown or yellowish-brown. This mushroom has a lemon-yellow dense pulp, which, when cut or broken, quickly acquires a blue tint.
The yellow-orange cylindrical leg reaches 15 cm in length, the hat - 20 cm in diameter. Podrabniki have excellent taste characteristics, so it is widely used for cooking various dishes, including soups, salads, sauces. They are also salted, pickled and dried for the winter, and the whole mushroom is used as a whole: both the leg and the hat.
Mushroom duvet: how to cook and process
After harvesting, the mushrooms must be processed quickly. It is known that they are very poorly stored and quickly deteriorate even in the refrigerator. Therefore, it is advisable to start processing no later than 4 hours after collection. If you buy ankles, then choose strong, beautiful, young specimens, without dark spots and wormholes. How to properly treat the cuffs: it is necessary to clean them well of earth and sand, rinse under a gentle stream of running water. Use a sharp knife to gently scrape the top layer of pulp. After the entire batch of mushrooms is cleaned and washed, you can proceed to boil. We advise you not to neglect this procedure! Place the mushrooms in the pan with salted water and boil them for 20-25 minutes. Remove foam regularly. After that, put them in a colander and leave them alone for a while.
