How to harvest mushrooms and look after ecologies.

Pine mushrooms are not free food, they are a gift. Please treat them as such. Treat the forest as the precious ecosystem that it is, whether it is a plantation or not. 

Take away your rubbish and stick to tracks with your transport. When you look after these amazing ecosystems, you will be richly rewarded. A happy pine forest is a generous one. 

Only ever pick what you will use that day or preserve that night. 

There are so many recipes, from mushroom Schnitzel, soups, and dips to mushroom pies.

Generally speaking, Saffron milk caps are quite firm, meaty mushrooms, they are slightly peppery and flavorsome. 

A classic recipe is sliced and fried in a pan with oil and a little garlic, to then serve hot with a sprinkle of parsley.




How to preserve them:

There are several ways to preserve this seasonal bounty. You can fry in a pan and then freeze in small parcels. You can make a soup, reduce it ‘till it is quite thick, and then freeze it. 

You can either air dry or dry them in a dehydrator. The way I like best is pickled, and below I’m sharing my recipe. 

Keep in mind that the spices are changeable, if you don’t have one, you can use more of another. this should only serve as a guide for you to find the recipe you like best.

What is the major problems in mushroom cultivation?

By BIO RESEARCH
Problems and solutions in the cultivation of the mushroom including: a) Mycelium fails to form Improper initiation strategy.  Solutions : consult parameter of growth. Alter moisture, temperature, light, carbon dioxide, etc.  Note : If the substrate is too moist, decrease moisture b) Chlorinated or contaminated water.  Solutions :  Use activated charcoal water filters to eliminate chemical contaminants or any other ways of simple or appropriate technology. c) Bad substrate.  Solutions : Check substrate. Spread the substrate and remix the substrate, package again, make sure all raw materials are good and fresh.   Note : It is necessary to pasteurize immediately after bagging otherwise fermentation gas will slow down the rate of growth of mycelium or stop mycelium growth. d) Bad pasteurization.  Solutions : Check method of pasteurization. Release all air and make sure there is continuous steam before starting pasteurization for a period of 3h. e) The substrate in the bag is too hot when i

Oyster mushroom vs button mushroom nutrition | Nutritional comparison between oyster and button mushrooms

By BIO RESEARCH
Oyster mushrooms are beloved the world over for their delicate texture and mild, savory flavor.  Oyster mushrooms are more expensive than white button mushrooms but less so than rarer mushrooms like morels, and take little prep since they can be used whole or chopped.                                Oyster: “These are low in calories and rich in fiber, protein, selenium [which may help prevent cancer], niacin [aka, vitamin B3] and riboflavin [aka, vitamin B2].Oyster mushrooms also contain an active compound called benzaldehyde, which has potent antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Additionally, research shows oyster mushrooms may significantly reduce blood glucose levels. They have also been shown to help lower cholesterol levels.”    White Button: White button mushrooms represent 90 percent of the total mushrooms consumed. “They’re a good source of potassium, B vitamins, calcium, phosphorus [which supports bone and teeth health] and iron. They also contain selenium, a trace
