Pickling Armilaria Mellea (Pre-boil, why?)
    #15205752 - 10/10/11 02:49 PM (12 years, 4 months ago)

Found a few awesome flushes of Armilaria Mellea and have a question about pickling. I've never pickled these before but figured I'd give em' a try. I just used a regular quick-pickle but didn't pre-boil and toss out the water as I figured it didn't matter. Does the pre-boil get rid of some toxin or is it more about taste?

Thanks in advance.

There's a thread here about someone getting pretty ill eating dried honey mushrooms, that might indicate that you really need to cook them first to get rid of some toxin.

I don't know about pickling.

I've found that par boiling isn't required if you're going to saute' them. Boiling might be a good idea if you're pickling them. Might help to expel the undesirables and cut down any bacteria. Just my two cents...:thumbup:

Boiled for 15 minutes in the pickling mixture before being fired into Mason's.... so they're cooked for sure! :smile: :smile:

When you mention undesirables, are they toxic undesirables? The only thing I could find mentioned is a bitter aftertaste that is removed, but no mention of toxins. I've eaten a bunch and didn't have any aftertaste at all, or any other problems. :smile:

Thanks again.

I meant bugs and debris. I know some people can get sick on honeys, but I'm apparently not one of them so I can't really speak on toxins. Maybe ToxicMan can shed some light on this...
