Question on boletus edulis


Gladrich

Recommended Posts

Hello Shroomers. I have found a large colony of these mushrooms ( Boletus Edulis) in my back yard under some big white pines. I have noticed that as they age the color of the pores change finally coming to an olive green. I am wondering if this effects the flavor and if they should be harvested at the white or yellow stage or if it makes no difference.

thanks much!

If you can pick them at the white pore stage, they will be a lot firmer and less likely to be wormy.  At the yellow pore stage they are only fit for drying, and they need to have the pores removed.
