Book excerpt: A richly illustrated guide to edible mushrooms by one of Europe’s leading fungi experts In this beautifully illustrated introductory guide, Jens Petersen shows how to successfully identify and forage for edible mushrooms, and then how to prepare them for the table to ensure a delicious culinary experience, even if you're a first-time forager. Accessible and user-friendly, the book opens with a substantial introduction to fungi—what to look for, where to find them and how to collect and cook them. Other topics include edible and poisonous fungi, conserving mushrooms and other uses of fungi. The book then covers the most common major groups, including morels, wood cauliflower, polypores, boletes, tooth fungi, chanterelles, horn of plenty, brittlegills, milkcaps, agarics, puffballs and jelly fungi. For many of these groups, notable subkinds are given their own treatment. With practice, the book will enable you to identify mushrooms such as yellow chanterelles, blueing boletes with orange tube mouths, green brittlegills and milkcaps with orange milk. Featuring more than 400 stunning colour photographs and more than forty black-and-white illustrations, this book will enhance the experience of every mushroom forager and wild-table chef.

Book excerpt: An up-to-date, comprehensive and brilliantly illustrated guide to fungi foraging in Britain and Europe. Written by full-time forager Geoff Dann, Edible Mushrooms covers every known edible fungi species - from the Oyster Mushroom and Beefsteak Fungus to the Bay Cup. It also features all the poisonous groups, as well as a few other extremely uncommon species and a handful of mushrooms included for their interesting or unusual characteristics, such as the Rosy Bonnet and Pig's Ear. Beautifully illustrated throughout with colour photos and a pictorial index, Edible Mushrooms aids you in accurately identifying edible and poisonous mushrooms, and distinguishing between 'lookalike' species. The species accounts include comprehensive information on the best time and place to hunt for each species, making it easy to safely forage mushrooms. The edible species are helpfully ranked according to their difficulty/danger level, so beginners can start with the easiest ones while experienced foragers can learn how to forage for the trickier species that other mushroom foraging guides leave out, such as the False Parasol. There is also helpful guidance on how to recognise threatened species that should be left alone to help conserve them. This fantastic guide is essential for foragers of all levels, from absolute beginners to the experienced fungi forager who would like to become an expert.
