Gold pored bolete

Recommended Posts

Handful of boletes I picked last night.  I'll apologize up front for the pictures since they were all taken indoors.  I believe these are Aureoboletus auriporus.  Found in mixed hardwood, dominant oak growing scattered.  Caps are viscid as well as the stems.  The pictures don't do justice to how bright the pores on these things are.  I get a fairly strong acidic smell from these.

Anybody eat these?  I'm one of the folks who has a skin reaction to the sticky caps of Suillus americanus, any concern with these guys?  Thanks for your input.

The only other possibility that comes to my mind is Aureoboletus innixus. But A. innixus has a stem that's usually thicker in the middle and tapered at the base. They tend to grow in small clusters and there's usually a prominent witch hazel odor. I think these are A. auriporus. The cuticles should be easy to remove. If you're going to prepare them to eat it may be a good idea to do this.
