Perfect day in the woods....

I know Breuer does a French toast variant with the Puffs that is supposed to be quite good......I still have never found one of those things.

 I guess I've never dehydrated any into powder. Anyone have any luck with that? Are there some good recipes I am just not giving a chance?

 

I've dehydrated puffballs before.  Never again.  It made the entire house smell like sweaty gym socks.  I've made open-faced grilled cheese sandwiches using puffballs as the "bread".  It wasn't too bad, but there are a LOT of better edibles out there in my opinion.

Have not put up much for pics this year ...  so thought I would post a couple selfies.... just gotta love the fall.

I found a few entoloma's this weekend as well.  Never had them before so was looking forward to it.

My buddy I was with pointed those aborted entolomas out to me. I've never had them. Where he is from they call ' em Pig Snouts.

He said they are great battered up and deep fried.

I first got the guts to try them last year, and really like them. Plus they are easy to find until the leaves start to drop. Think the key is to cook them long enough... bet they would be awesome battered and fried.

Don't they taste like Shrimp?  Would think battered.....or if that is what they do then a scampi maybe??????

The aborteds (should it be abortions?) have been out pretty thick for a while now....The wife is a vegetarian, so I use them in a curry dish as a replacement for seafood.  Pretty tasty, if I do say so myself.  A friend of mine who actually knows how to cook did something like JP suggests, and it turned out incredible.  My curry dish overpowers them a bit, so something a little less strong was even better. 

Nice hericium there, push.  I think it's still my favorite 'shroom of all.
