Publisher's Comments (cont.)
From the author of North American Mushrooms: A Field Guide to Edible and Inedible Wild Mushrooms, this new book aids mushroom hunters to armchair naturalists with finding, harvesting, preparing, and enjoying North American wild mushrooms. Detailed descriptions and color photos of forty edible mushrooms—including scientific and common names, habitat, odor and taste, fruiting time, and more—are accompanied by recipes that feature each mushroom. Wild Edible Mushrooms also includes introductory material with reasons to make mushrooms part of one’s diet (nutrients, medicinal, taste, cost), cautions (allergies and toxins), tips on caring for and preparing mushrooms (drying, freezing, preserving, canning, pickling), and illustrations to help identify different types of mushroom.
