Wild Mushroom Risotto Anyone?


Having your own backyard for the first time opens your eyes up to a whole new world of stuff.
Like today, I noticed that there are 'shrooms sprouting up in random places on my lawn. Question is, are they edible, poisonous, or hallucinogenic? I don't think I'll ever find out, but if I had to rank them in order of what I'd prefer, I'd choose number one first, then number three, and number two last.

a friend once mixed in magic mushrooms with a mushroom risotto dish, and man was it fantastic!

CP,

J,

Ew! There would have to be enough moisture and microorganisms in that carpet for 'shrooms to grow from it--so gross!

Anonymous,

I'll bet it was! LOL!

Hey DG - Now that you would even think about eating them cracks me up! Someone once snuck some hallucinogenic "stuff" into my coffee.......and I obviously never recovered......

I've got mushrooms in my yard too (not what I expected when I moved to L.A.). Most fortunately, mine are edible and fantastic.

Anonymous,

Thanks for the info, but aww shucks, I guess no psychedelic 'shrooms for dinner. But are they still edible? LOL!

if they're hallucinogenic, i'm coming over. after all, i need all the help i can get just to "imagine" that i like "shrek".

Daily Gluttony said...

PCBH,

well i just learned from "anonymous's" link that they're not, but giiiiirl, i think that thinking about shrek whilst on 'shrooms might actually be a bad trip. vodka might be better. LOL!

Your food photos are amazing! I’ve been lurking on your blog for awhile and finally thought I’d say something…. your photography is excellent.
