Mushrooms in August 2019

Mushrooms of august

August 2019 is a busy period for the growth of various types of mushrooms. Grow in season:

• boletus, white;
• chanterelles;
• mushrooms;
• waves;
• honey agarics;
• milk mushrooms;
• flywheels;
• redheads, boletuses;
• base supports;
• russula.

Honey mushrooms

If a couple of honey agarics has appeared, it is worth looking further: they grow in groups. They are used for pickling and frying. It is worth collecting this mushroom carefully, since there are false pigs or false honey agarics. They have a color from gray-yellow to brick-red, there are no scales, rings on the legs, they smell bad.

In order for children to better remember what are the differences between real and false agarics, you can learn the quatrain with them:

Have an edible mushroom
There is a film ring on the leg.
And all false honey agarics
Legs are bare to the toes.

Boletus, porcini mushrooms

Boletus in translation means "a mushroom growing in coniferous forests - pine forests". White mushroom is a representative of a species of the Boletovye family, this is the second name for boletus.

In porcini mushrooms, the cap is of different colors, it can be from dark brown to light, it depends on the place of their growth. White dense pulp does not change its color with different types of workpieces. They can be dried, salted, fried.

Ryzhiki

Ginger has a great taste. He lives in places where spruce grows. Its flesh is bright orange, the color turns blue on the cut. The leg is short.

Irina Selyutina (Biologist):

Camelina mushrooms are characterized by their own parasitic fungi. Representatives of the brick-red Pekiella species, belonging to the Hypomyceteaceous family, often settle on their fruit bodies. During its development, its mycelium causes a reduction of the hymenophore plates and almost completely covers the entire underside of the cap of the saffron milk cap. Lovers of "quiet hunting" call such mushrooms "stone" or "deaf". Mycologists say that the plates in this case lose the ability to form spores. Mushroom pickers and experts agree on the nutritional value - picking such mushrooms is not recommended.

Before cooking, mushrooms do not require cooking, they only need soaking.

Milk mushrooms

The mushrooms are characterized by a funnel-shaped cap of a whitish color, a light-colored leg in the shape of a cylinder. Milk mushrooms are used for pickles.

Chanterelles

Chanterelles are not wormy, they grow on the territory of coniferous, birch, mixed forests.

Irina Selyutina (Biologist):

Among fans of mushrooming, chanterelles are highly valued for their excellent taste and the almost complete absence of insect larvae (which we more commonly call "worms") in the fruit bodies. This is due to the presence in the pulp of a special compound - chinomannose, which is a natural shield of the fungus from parasites (antihelmintic) that seek to feast on it.

The spore-bearing layer of the chanterelle consists of pseudoplates - thick, sparse and branched folds, of the same color as the cap, which descend along the stalk and blur the border between it and the cap. It is this and the peculiarity of the formation of spores that served as the basis for the allocation of chanterelles to the Chanterelle family

Volnushki

Usually mushroom pickers collect white and pink waves.

The pink flower has a lot of synonyms:

• volzhanka;
• wave;
• broth;
• roe;
• volnyanka.

These mushrooms are common on mosses, in swampy areas, in shaded areas. The wave has a pink hat, its height is 5-7 cm, a leg is 2 cm in diameter. In the middle of the hat there is a depression, which disappears as it grows.

White wave, or as it is also called - white, volzhanka, grows among birches, its height reaches 4 cm. A hat with a depressed center. The color is dark in the middle, light at the edges. The crop is harvested since August.

Flywheels

Flywheels taste great

Mosswheel is a category 3 edible mushroom with excellent taste. Flywheels are boiled, canned, fried, pickled, dried. The moss grows along roads, at the edges of forests and among bushes.

Boletus (redheads)

Boletus boletuses have a bright orange cap and grow in mixed forests next to aspen trees, they taste good and are used for boiling, frying, drying and pickling.

Bearings

The leaflet belongs to russula, it is called:

• thresher;
• spurge;
• the lump is red-brown.

The base has a dense cap with a diameter of up to 10 cm, it is flat in shape, and tends to crack. The color of the cap ranges from red to yellow-brown.

The pulp is white, fleshy, dense. Its smell is described in different ways: to someone it resembles a herring, to someone the smell of pear flowers, and someone does not feel it at all. When cut, a white milky sap is released, which turns brown and thickens in air.

Russula

Russula are a common type of edible mushroom that grows in deciduous, coniferous forests. The collection starts in August.
