GJC Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 Hi folks, I have never collected these for eating but have read that they are a good edible. looking for confirmation on ID and any experience with eating them. Thick white stem, snaps easily like a Russula. White pores, white flesh. Everything turns indigo blue immediately after handling. No distinctive smell or taste.

Dave W Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 One of the easier boletes to learn to ID. The brittle stalk is a god indicator, as well as the vivid blue staining. Also, the interior of the stalk consists of a "stuffed chamber" that eventually becomes fairly hollow. IMO this species is a very good edible.
