Adawg Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 I was going through my photos from 2014, and started wondering about these . I found them in abundance towards the end of morel season last year . Not sure about their edibility, I left them . Then I saw what looked similar to them in the grocery store . Can't remember the name, but they were very tasty, and had a nutty flavor when fried in butter . I understand that some corrals are edible, just not sure about these . These were terrestrial, and not on wood, and from my research, that would not be C. pyxidata .. Any thoughts ?? Thanks,
Tasso Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 I have a feeling that these are what you bought at the grocery store. Cultivated Flammulina velutipes, commonly known as enoki. See here: http://www.mushroomexpert.com/flammulina_velutipes.html
Adawg Posted February 15, 2015 Author Report Posted February 15, 2015 That's what they were .. Enoki ... Not the same thing, as the enoki actually have a cap and what I found had more of a jagged crown ..
Dave W Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 Tremellodendron pallidum (aka. T. schweinitzii). These are typical young ones found just a couple weeks after morels phase out. The flesh is tough/pliable as opposed to the fairly brittle/fragile/breakable flesh of true coral mushrooms. http://www.mushroomexpert.com/tremellodendron_schweinitzii.html
