pick them when they are still young and firm (well, as firm as this mushrooms gets, anyway). Cook them soon, while they still look and feel that good.
The whole mushroom. If you cooked just the stipes, you'd have to gather a whole heck of a lot of them.
As long as they are cooked through, any method you might think of will work. I'm partial to frying or sauteing methods. They make a fine sauce. They make a fine regular sauteed mushrooms eaten on just about anything you can put them on, for that matter.

Chop it up and saute the whole thing with onions and a little garlic until they are golden brown. Put over ribs, enjoy!
That's just what I would do.

Hrm. Eating with pork ribs specifically, I would sautee them with butter and onion, and then make a bbq sauce/glaze with them.

Oh yes, that's good, but for pork ribs I would make it into a caramelized sugar sauce that will dry up enough to stick and coat.

I don't pick them enough because all the places nearby where they are prolific are places people take their dogs to do business.
I'm hoping the inoculation of some compost in my yard took as well as I think it did and that they'll be coming up soon.

Yes. They are edible and delicious. I found them more or less outwardly idenical to C. nuda except that they were growing from high grass in a horse pasture were no tree had been in 20 years or more.
Anyway, you all can PM me any time with anything interesting that isn't solicitation to criminal action or a request for locations or for me to do homework for you. I won't always be around, or have time, but I won't mind.

I kind of want to experiment with the spore mass they create as they deliquify. I don't know id it would be rancid though. I used to make a black and white fritter with calamari and squid ink and think it would be a good style for Coprinus comatus.
Pretty much the recipe would go.
C. comatus fritter
1/2 cup chickpea flour
1/4 onion sliced into 1/8" rings
1/4 cup C. comatus
C. comatus ink to saturate and make batter
pinch salt
pimenton/espelette as desired
1/4 more or less cup oil for pan frying
In a bowl combine all ingredients except mushroom ink. Drizzle in liquid until batter is created. It should be about the thickness of waffle batter.
well this is actually a tricky recipe after this part.
Poor oil into a 12" skillet use about 2" of oil in a pan for pan frying. On the stove top heat oil up to almost its smoke point. When oil reaches that point poor batter into hot oil and WATCH OUT!!
Hmm, as I type I fear for for peoples safety.
Fry batter until edges become golden brown and then flip the fritter over with a pair of tongs. Make sure when your turn it, flip it away from you so you don't splash hot oil on yourself. Continue to cook until golden brown on both sides.
I would serve it with a garlic aioli or some similar dipping sauce.
Remember, I have never made the above recipe. It is only theoretical. I take no responsibility for others experimentation.

Try it. If it hasn't matured long enough to spoil (and they mature rather quickly, even soemwhat while refrigerated), and no odor is off-putting, It can't do any actual harm to try.

Bah. They're the most common mushroom around here at the moment. They're just all growing from fields of dog feces.

Somehow, I didn't even see "ribs" in the OP. Sorry for the thread hijack. I'll go home now.
