Just the thought of lions mane, fried up in a little butter with some garlic, makes me salivate. An iconic mushroom, seafood of the trees, and it makes my brain feel good too. Last fall we found a hiking trail that was littered with trees growing it. Took a bunch (still left plenty for others) and dehydrated and powdered it. Whenever I’m making a soup or sauce, I throw a spoonful in and it absolutely transforms the dish.
I love me some lions mane mushrooms. Lucky for me, I get them growing in my yard in large patches. And there are morel’s and chicken of the woods in the surrounding forest.
They’re fucking delicious af, if nothing else
A lot of people only ever try the boring white ones and get their flavour from other places. They have no fucking idea!
Even those are delicious with just some butter and garlic.
I have to wonder how many of those “I hate mushrooms” people would change their tune if they had a well-cooked king oyster or lion’s mane.
