Habitat ne oh. Forest mixed with conifers. I believe this is Lycoperdon perlatum i cooked along side my T bone steak I hadnt planned on eating the lyoercon but it smells really good! I cut the bad off (roots dirt n such) and rinsed them briefly under cold water and put the in the fridge overnight. They were picked yesterday I sautéed em in olive oil heres pics.

Puffballs are yummy! Ive tried gem studded, pear, and common. All the same way......lightly Sautéd in butter and a pinch o garlic. Those I always think taste like popcorn.

Mmm sounds like another vote I should try some. I just wanted to make sure that they were gemstudded puffballs before I dine with the dead or sign my two weeks notice on life. End up on the liver/kidney transplant waiting list. Real long I hear that list! TY for the info!

TY art you know I try buddy I just tried a piece. I think it tastes like it smells raw. The taste is not like a mushroom per say. Its kind of unique though it reminded me of the calvatea gigantea that I ate. I spit it out after a few seconds of chewing trying to think of what I could compare the taste to. Since I found it Im a bit skeered even with an ID to eat enough of it yet and give a better description, thats the best I can do for now lol.

Cool! TY ZippyHippyinWA! I will try and remember that. I also heard if it leaves a green spore print throw it out. I guess I need to lay puff mushrooms upside down to achieve this?

Naw cut it in half. Always to check for sporelatation and make sure not a hidden amanita.

Black is poisonous by the way and white will turn yellow or green (spore production) at the top of the white and makes the mushroom bitter.

Sweet! Maybe ill find some that aren't all dried up lol..BTW sketch, I found (I think) my first cortinarius iodes the other day! Sry, I know its off topic but I thought it was a really cool find...but I'm not 100% sure yet. My kid screwed up my laptop so I can't get the pics on here yet... but neways, really cool and maybe you'll eat some more after the second guessing is over ... I've done it with almost every new mushroom I found, but I finally take a little bite and realize it really is good lol

I am eating some more now. Out of the 4-5 pieces I ate my final flavor description is very pleasant (even cold) the taste. Reminds me of portobello mushrooms after taste. I know someone will think that sounds weird but IMO once I got past the flavor of the olive oil I tasted a tad bit strong. Not peppery but a unique almost exactly the odd flavor I detected from eating a giant puffball. Its after taste seems best. Its like you would think styrofoam tastes. What you would think styrofoam tastes like with a marshmallowy texture and a portobello after taste 
that makes me feel good the pics made you hungry it was a really good meal and that shows Im not a bad cook. Im hard on myself but when I actually have patience things can really turn out nice! I almost posted pictures of the steak when I started cutting pieces off and they were perfectly cooked how I like em and then the gnawed remains of the T lol!

Nice man The ones around here taste different than the giant puffballs. They have a very rich taste like fine aged cheddar in a way. I love the taste and the smell and would consider them uite good. Butter seems to compliment them but it compliments most things ehh?
