The annual mushroom picking has long been a traditional form of recreation for townspeople, rural residents and rural residents. The main rule of "quiet hunting" is to be able to distinguish an edible mushroom from an inedible one. This is often not very easy, especially for beginners. There are several obvious signs by which even the most inexperienced "hunter" will be able to distinguish an edible mushroom from an inedible one.
Instructions
Step 1
When picking mushrooms, be sure to consider the underside of their caps, which has a spore-bearing layer - a hymenophore. As a rule, it can be in the form of plates, folds, spines and tubes. So, the most delicious and healthy edible mushrooms, such as boletus, boletus, boletus and porcini mushrooms, have a layer of tubules under the cap. Among mushrooms with a hymenophore in the form of tubes, inedible ones are extremely rare.
Step 2
It is believed that mushrooms growing on wood are also relatively safe. Poisonous representatives may also be caught among them, but such, as a rule, have a bitter taste and an unpleasant odor.
Step 3
One of the most popular mushrooms, the cep, has several dangerous poisonous counterparts. Pay attention to the mushroom cap. For edibles it is white, and for inedibles it is pink or red. If in doubt, break the cap off the mushroom. In a false porcini mushroom, it will darken, and in an edible mushroom, it will not change its color when broken.
Step 4
You can distinguish edible mushrooms from false ones by paying attention to the mushroom caps. In ordinary honey agarics, they are brown, and in poisonous ones, the cap has a green or red tint. In addition, there is a special ring on the stem of each mushroom, which is absent in inedible mushrooms. Edible mushrooms have a pleasant mushroom aroma, and inedible mushrooms have a nasty earthy smell.
Step 5
The edible chanterelle differs from the false one in color. The poisonous mushroom has a bright yellow or orange hue, it is smoother and more flavorful than the edible chanterelle.
Step 6
A deadly poisonous mushroom is the pale toadstool. Every mushroom picker should remember her appearance. The leg of a pale toadstool grows from a "pot", there is a translucent ring on it. The cap of this poisonous mushroom is usually white, pale green or yellowish in color, with the middle usually darker than its edges.
Step 7
Of course, it is better to go on a "quiet hunt" with an experienced mushroom picker, who at first glance will be able to distinguish an edible mushroom from an inedible one.
