Can i eat these ?
    #6015181 - 08/31/06 11:43 AM (17 years, 6 months ago)

Shaggy Manes !,, :smile:. I think.


I'm just wondering if there's any poisonous lookalikes anywhere in Britain i need to be worried about.
I have a bit of a hangover aswell but it's been over 12 hours since i had any alcohol, am i ok to eat ?

These are the first ones ive seen this year, but pretty soon they'll be everywhere. These look abit smaller than i remember them being last year but there growing in the exact same spot. Maybe they're small because it's the first few of the season.



Thanks !

I’m fairly certain those are Shaggy Manes, but I’m far too inexperienced to recommend anyone to eat anything. You better do something before they eat themselves and turn into ink. I believe there is a way to stop this, I think it involves boiling it for a little or something. You should look into that.

I think they are, they were growing in this grassy field that ends up full of these every year.
Ive never eaten any before through fear of becoming poisoned, but i'm not even sure there are any poisonous lookalikes in this country.
I'm a noob though.

Here is something I found in another post. "I did the quick saute at first which was good but then I stumbled on a post talking up the advantages of a one minute BOIL to stop the enzymatic deliquescing (it goes FAST.) That allowed for later eating and for freezing in packets." You better do something quick, because the last time I picked some Shaggy Manes they were ink 5 hours later. The only lookalike I would be afraid of would be some type of Lepiota, which I dont think you have. I hope I've been of help.

Yeah thanks man, that info will come in handy.
They're definately not Lepoita, there was an older specimin where i found these, it had opened up and was already turning to ink.

How do you plan on eating them...? I never tried them before, and i'm just curious.
Some grow near my house, but none yet. I'll probably hunt some, and then cook'em up and eat them.

Those look like regular coprinus comatus to me: the edible shaggy manes.

I tried this species last year and they tasted awful. Found them again this week and decided to give them another try, but discarded them anyway when I sniffed them. I just can't get over their aroma, I guess.

Howeverm feel free to try them, there are people (also on these boards) who love them!

There's afew recipies here.

http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat...rue#Post2064348

I don't think i'm going to eat them though.
Ive just read this:

"It is important to note that coprine leaves the body primed for poisoning for several days (even a week by some reports) after eating the mushroom. Therefore, it is not only the consumption of a coprine-containing mushroom and an alcoholic drink at the same time that can cause coprine poisoning. Symptoms can also occur if someone drinks wine, for instance, two or more days after the meal or eats a coprine-containing mushroom after consuming alcohol"

I want to drink tomorrow night,, :frown:.

Many people think shaggy manes go well with eggs.

Here's a recipe from Roger Phillips site

Quote:

Baked Egg and Ink Caps

6 ink caps
4 eggs
1 clove garlic
Pepper and salt
Butter

The ink caps reduce a lot on cooking so this sort of dish, where you add them as a flavouring to eggs or something else, is ideal. SERVES TWO-FOUR

Shaggy ink caps have a very delicate flavour that benefits from a touch of garlic. Clean and chop the ink caps, discarding the stems, and fry for two minutes in butter. Butter four cocotte dishes, add an egg to each and then top with the half-cooked mushrooms. Flavour with pepper and salt and a tiny squeeze of fresh garlic on each. Bake in a pre-heated, hot oven 200°C (400°F, Mark 6).

Coprinus comatus doesn't contain coprine.

I usually have them with scrambled eggs and toast, quick and easy. Phillips says they go well with garlic added so I'll try that next time.

Keep your eye out for chicken of the woods, field mushrooms, fairy ring champignons, parasols and beef steak mushrooms. They're all out in the UK at the moment  :smile:

This is going to be a mushrooms season to remember!  :laugh:

They're a choice edible, and I've never had trouble drinking after/before eating shaggy manes. Of course, I don't drink to excess, but three or four drinks or beers has never been a problem. You want them fresh before there is any sign of ink. They're great sliced up and fried with butter and onions.
