Hello hivers, an happy Tuesday and an happy first day of October to you all!
Yesterday I didn't paint anything new, but I have a very fruitful days in a different way: I found a lot of very good porcini (Boletus edulis)!

Yesterday, after the lunch, I went with my hubby @paolobeneforti and my mom in a forest not so far from my city, a forest where since many years I use to go to search edible mushroom, especially Porcini mushroom, a kind of edible mushroom that is very appreciate to cook and no cheap to buy (but I never bought them, because every year I found all the porcini I want to eat).
I had no my camera with me, because, as you can understand, when I walk under the trees to search mushroom I have just the strictly necessary with me: a little water, my small wicker basket and my phone.
Thanks my phone, I took (few) pics while I was there and so here they are:

My hubby while he was watching a porcino (you can see the mushroom close to his feet and, in detail, in the next pic):

At the end, when we came back to home, we have weighed all the porcini mushrooms we found and the result was around 4,5 Kg!
Just to know, I took also a couple of Bubbole (Macrolepiota excoriata) because I like to eat them (I use to cook them with few good olive oil for just few minutes):

Yesterday I cook some of them for dinner and they were very very good, but the most part of them will be cook by my mom to place into the freezer.
See ya soon and stay safe,
Silvia

Uhhhh, i porcini, il figlio della mia compagna ĆØ partito un paio di volte, per l'Umbria e la Toscana, ne ha trovati un po' di porcini, ma anche di altri funghi, intanto abbiamo fatto un bel risotto, poi vedremo strada facendo...

@mad-runner ci credi che per me la gioia maggiore ĆØ piĆ¹ trovarli che mangiarli? :D Scherzi a parte, i miei hanno iniziato a portarmi con loro che ero bambina insegnandomi via via i posti "buoni", per questo mangio porcini (fritti, in umido, semplicemente saltati in padella, come sugo e via) da sempre e, grazie al mega congelatore di mia madre, praticamente in ogni stagione. Trovarli ĆØ una vera caccia al tesoro che ti regala tanta adrenalina, senza contare che ĆØ una palestra naturale che i boschi non son mai in piano qui in Toscana. <3 Noi generalmente tendiamo a concentrarci sui porcini, ma ci sono tanti funghi edibili buonissimi, incluso uno dei miei preferiti che sono le Trombe di Morto che nonostante il nome (sembrano piccole trombette e son nere) son buonissimi in umido.

I want to try a boletus mushroom, is it true that they are very spongy?

The edible boletus, like almost all the edible mushrooms, are a little spongy, but it depends how you cook them. ^_^
