We tried to look for morels on Tuesday but all we found were Verpa conica, which apparently are also edible but everything we found was bug-filled so thank you, next. I want to keep looking in the mountains
Russula xerampelina (Shrimp Russula) and Russula sanguinea in the same basket (with Candy Caps as well!) The two Russula species are similar in appearance but upon tasting, sanguinea is very bitter and peppery while xerampelina has a mild taste. We ate the Shrimp Russula for dinner with Zatarain鈥檚, onion, and potatoes
