I went out with my family today for a walk in the New Forest and my daughter pointed out a large and perfect specimen of Boletus Edulis (AKA Porcini or Cep) - needless to say it went in the bag and was much relished at teatime, gently sauteed in butter and served with an omlette and crusty bread.
I suspect if we’d searched around a bit, we could have picked a bucketfull of them, but I was so pleased with this single mushroom as it’s the first time I’ve picked one with no trace of insect infestation.
Anybody else want to post your wild food escapades?
