Edible Boletes? and some other finds
    #18489322 - 06/29/13 06:12 PM (10 years, 6 months ago)

Found a bunch of these today, are these an edible bolete species?  Anyone know which one?  Would like to confirm they are safe to eat, I'm planning on cooking them up tonight if so.  Collected quite a few I'm not going to show pictures of all, are there any dangerous look alikes I would need to watch out for?

       

Habitat: wood - some were growing directly on stumps and other dead wood, others growing right on the ground, probably buried wood or roots
Gills: pores
Stem: see pics
Cap: see pics
Spore print color: n/a
Bruising: some older specimens seemed to bruise dark pretty easily, only on the pore surface
Location: Coastal Maine, USA

Thanks for any help!

Also found these:

Amanita ????? (not eating these)

     

And I have no idea what this is but it was cool looking...

1 Compare with Boletus badius
2 Amanita flavoconia
3 Phaeolus schweinitzii

Nice finds!
Those do look like B.badius, and the only inedible lookalike I know of is Tylopilus felleus, the bitter bolete. Try tasting a little piece. If it tastes fine, cook em up!

That's funny I was just reading about those bitter ones.  These definitely aren't bitter.  After comparing mine to the wiki article, B. badius seems right on!  Got a full dehydrator and I'm searching recipes now for the rest :thumbup:

It really was, I was actually looking for black trumpets because I've seen them in that location before.  Didn't find any, but I was delighted to see these everywhere.  They grew the entire length of a 2+ mile hiking trail, got around 2lbs!

Here was their fate:

   

Mushroom/barley/potato stew.  Mmmm....
Plenty left to dry too.  The dry ones smell awesome.  Haven't tried the stew yet...
