What you have is what's commonly known as the pine bolete, the King of all mushrooms, here in Madrid in Spain the price on the market for kg was 40 euros, almost 50 dollars!, you can carefully rip them off the ground and cut away parts with mud in the spot, the most important thing if you want them to keep growing is to cover the whole again so the mycelium is protected.

You should clean them on site to let the spores fall off. Again, the other thing is that you should have a proper basket that have openings to let the spores fall, so to help the growth of new mushrooms.

Nice mushrooms, pine bolete. When you are out there in the forest looking for them use knife cut them deep in the ground (this helps them grove again) and clean them on spot that way you not bringing all that dirt back home with you. You know you can cut them like that and put them in a freezer and eat them later also. You can make salad out of them as well. Use basket instead of bucket to help spread mycelium so that you can enjoy them again next year at that same spot. Enjoy!!

In Poland we are collecting mushrooms in winter :) For me most delicious are chanterelle! Especially with scramble eggs!

Clean the mushrooms in the forest, please. Twist them, if possible, when taking out. Cover the hole after that. The nature will give it back to you, one day.

Lucky duck!! Those are gorgeous.

This was an amazing summer for mushrooms. We found that Amanita Muscarias (Fly Agaric) grow near Porcinis as they love the same conditions. Where you see one, you'll find the other.

Amanita muscaria only grows in Europe and wester Alaska. What you saw was amanita chrysoblema a very close relative of the fly agaric.

Hi, if you have excess mushrooms that you can't eat fresh, then drying them really accentuates the flavour even more. You cut them up in slivers, dry them and freeze in a container or ziplock bag, they will last for years that way. When you want to use them, just add some boiling water to the dried mushrooms and they will re-constitute themselves with even more flavour than before to go into your pasta, risotto, soup or whichever dish you are preparing. Enjoy! 👍

Thank you I could have sworn that that really was just hemlock. I'm glad you clarified that it was not hemlock. I'm from Washington and that straight up looks like hemlock hemlock I could have been easily fooled

Fantastic!!!

I like that you are using an external mike. I wish more youtube channels would invest in one. Wind is a real challenge for a lot of channels. The built-in omnidirectional mikes do not pickup audio as well due to certain body positioning. During my college years 73-77 on Monday the School cafeteria would have standard meat-chicken, pork, steak or hamburger. By Thursday we would end up with "mystery meat" and along with that would be some type of edible mushrooms.

I just saw a ton of these yeaterday wasn't sure if they were edible thanks for video

Nice haul!

Don't know how true it is but I have read it is best to cut the stalk at the base so you minimise damage to the mycillum. Great video.

We have land near Cripple Creek. This year there were mushrooms of all kinds all over. Some I recognized poisonous. I am hoping to get into a group next year to learn more about them and which are edible.

The first thing I thought of was that the osha looks a lot like poison hemlock. Poison hemlock has such a distinctive stem.

Here in austria it is common to just dry boletes if there are a few maggots inside. They just crawl out while the mushroom dehydrates. These are a few boletes we collect im austria: Boletus reticulatus Boletus edulis Boletus pinophilus Suillellus luridus Neoboletus Erythropus Leccinum versipelle Imleria badia

Big mushrooms!👍👍👍😍

Wow! They are huge even for King boletes. Some people consider them the best edible mushroom out there. Even for the buggy ones, people would pay $30 a pound

Cool finds! I recommend cutting them off at the base instead of pulling out 🙂👍🏻 Discoloration on the underside of the cap can mean that the fungus is past prime for eating. You may opt for harvesting when younger and smaller and not as discolored. As far as insects go, many wild mushrooms have bugs when harvested. I soak mine in a salt water solution for a little while to get the bugs to come out, depending on the type of mushroom. Hope this is helpful!

u are soooo cute! i love msuhroom forgaing.

Thanks

Those are the biggest mushrooms I’ve ever seen. Your getting close to 20,000 subscribers good for you!

I've been eating Morrells for 60 years, and I soak them in cold water with salt. It forces all the bugs out. Might try it.hate to see mushrooms 🍄 wasted.

Moving to Colorado in a few months so excited ! Hopefully I’ll be looking for land to buy next year there if I like it !

Wow! Most of what I find have been visited by deer, mice, or worms.

Here in northern Italy, those porcini mushrooms cost at least $ 30 for a kilogram!

Try some Kinders master salt-sea salt,garlic,butter seasoning on those. Available at Walmart to my surprise. Josh at Stoney Ridge cooked up a brisket and was using Kinders last week so I googled it and there it was at Wally. Best seasoning I've used, grilled a rib eye the other night with it yummy !!!!

WOW.. 🍄

Waouh ça c'est des champignons une bonne omelette un régal 🇨🇵🤗☺️ papy Gilbert de France bisous bisous

Nothing wrong with a little larval flavoring!

We live in the mountains in Jefferson, Co . There are alot of mushrooms in our aspens.

Boletus edulis, the best mushrooms!

Super👍

Im in summit picking up my foraging permit at the ranger station today. Are there any mushrooms that look like the king bolete in the area I should be skeptical of?

Seems the king and bicolor both like pine needles. We have 6 big Bicolors under our pine tree in our yard right now.

Just dry the other ones with larva, instead of throwing them away.

😃Pekné hríby🌲🍄🌲🍄🌟🌟🌟

One of the most prized mushrooms on the planet.

You guys get morels down that way? Those are my fave.. Your really pretty btw..❤

Hey from Sweden 🇸🇪.

I learned from a forager that the proper harvesting technique is to carefully cut them at the base not pull.

Okay, if you and Bryan are around for a future video, I'll know you picked non-lethal mushrooms.... hey, just joking around here... thanks for the video...

Wow

The sad thing is that when those mushrooms gets large, particurlarly then. They've a lot of worms in them.

If you pull them out make sure to bress the dirt hole together so the mycel cant dry out or bacteria or animals can destroy the mycel

Going to pick some to take back to Iowa.

sandra bullock ... and king bolete

6:10 Fly Agaric. You must first heat treat it. You will then be invited to strange places once consuming it.

You can eat amanita muscaria in small amounts for intoxication effects. Or after boiling it a certain way for a couple hours.

It is ironic that one type of fungus is health beneficial and I have some health problems related to other type of fungus-Candida skin problems. Was the teen you went missing in the Colorado Mountains near you all?

When you cook all the lava death.. just dig it when you found it out on the surface don't give a chance to the bugs to create lava.. collect ASAP

BOLETUS EDULIS!!!

I live near Breckenridge any recommendations on mushrooms and where to look?

CLean the mushroom where you found it instantly so the spurs can spread!!!!!!

In France, we cook it with salted butter and garlic. Do you have girolles mushroom in america ?

"The queen has hairy legs."

pat pat at!!! the top to release more speores

I MISSED A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY!!! NOO!!!!

These are fruit worms so it is not an issue after you cook the mushroom!

Where are you in the CO Mountains?

U pick up mushroom are they safe to eat

People have been eating A. muscaria for thousands of years. I harvest and eat them every year. I save some for medicinal purposes, some for meditation, and if it's a bountiful year, simply eating them. Each function has a specific way to prepare. The phobia about them is unwarranted and been blown way out of proportion. If you eat them raw you will get cramps, the poops, and GI irritation. You know what else gives you that if you don't cook them? Potatoes, cassava, kidney and lima beans, and more. Because they can be quite plentiful, you can harvest tens, even hundreds of pounds in one session. They require a bit of work - boiling and draining a number of times, but boiling and draining a few times for weeks or months of free food is a pretty darn good trade-off. Of course, there is nothing particularly special about their flavor, and they are far more useful as topicals, tinctures, teas, micro-dosing, and of course, macrodosing.

You’re gonna have larva. You just wasted a perfectly good mushroom.

Yum!!! I'm wondering...can you soak the mushrooms in salt water like you would cauliflower or broccoli to get the bugs and worms to float to the surface? I have no idea 🤷🏼‍♀️ Those were some beauties though 👍 On a completely different subject. You are stunning with no makeup 😁 You are with makeup, too but I like the no makeup look ❤️ Oh....and yeah...I changed my name back to normal 😂

Boletus rubriceps

Hello

King Bolek? King "Bolete" with a 'T', not 'K'. King Bleek? King Boleek???? BoleTe

cover back the soil!

That sounds like a very good idea to skip eating anything crawling around the mushrooms unless you're into Entomophagy. EDIT: If I found one larva, I'd skip the whole bunch, but that's just me. And now I'm going to throw out all the mushrooms I have in my refrigerator... thanks... Just kidding around here... hahahaha...

BROO YOU WASTED SOO MUCH OF THE MUSHROOM hhahahahhaha wtfffffff clean them in the woods !!!!! and close the hole the mushroom left otherwise every mushroom mycel will dry out

Why not smash the poisonous mushrooms out of existence?
