I found my first one in the wild a couple weeks ago! They’re so good!

I was hunting for other mushrooms, but happened on it. Depending on where you are, Chicken of the woods should be going strong right now, along with hen of the woods. Both are really tasty, and wildly different tasting.

Yes! We cut some into strips and breaded and fried them, straight up chicken strips!

Delicious! I did some in a faux chicken strip style, did some sautéed in a pasta, and then made a conserva with the rest for down the road.

They certainly took their time, I had been going out a few times a week for the past 2 months or so, and only recently did they start popping. I had great luck with chanterelles and morels earlier in the year.

Definitely do the research. Never munch on a hunch.

Hen of the woods- or Rams Head/Sheep’s Head/Maitake. Turkey tails are similar, shelf like; but not really edible. I think you can make tinctures and such out of them. These are totally cook em up and eat em.
