What gorgeous art! Thank you for laboring on this wonderful topic! Please enjoy my happy mug with a rosette of L. cinncinatus.

Ahhhhh DELICIOUS!!! What a beautiful find!!

It totally made my day! And we made a very tasty CotW and wild rice stew from it. Full comfort food mode.

This is amazing!

Awesome

i love the palette in this one!

Thank you! It’s always fun trying out a new weird palette to match each mushroom :)

Have you thought about publishing? Ten Speed Press does cookbooks with illustrations that match your vibe.

It’d be fun to pitch a foraging graphic novel some day! For now though, just zines :)

Bravo! They are very cool

A tree by our house grows chicken of the woods. its lovely :)

Backyard chickens, lucky!!

Thank you so much. 🥰

Does it taste anything like the consistency of chicken, or is it just a name?

It’s weirdly close to chicken meat in both flavor and consistency! I like making vegan chicken casseroles and chicken noodle soup with it, both of which taste eerily accurate!

Mushrooms are much closer to animals than plants, genetically-speaking, and sometimes foraging really makes you Think about that 😂

Noice!

I need a new recipe. I harvested ~2 pounds last fall, and it's still frozen waiting for inspiration.

Have you tried any from Alan Bergo’s site yet? I can personally recommend the Minnesota wild rice + COW casserole recipe, it was a huge hit when I cooked it for a group of friends! foragerchef.com/category/wil...
