About this deal

your favourite dipping sauce - or try one of these easy sauces: marinara sauce, currywurst sauce, honey mustard sauce, smoky chipotle sauce, easy curry ketchup, spicy orange mayonnaise Place the grilled puffball slices onto a baking sheet. Spread a thin layer of pasta sauce or tomato sauce evenly onto each slice. Dust with a sprinkling of oregano. cup roasted, salted peanuts or cashews (don't omit these as they really provide a nice crunch in contrast to the soft puffball cubes)

While the pasta water is heating and the pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the puffball cubes and ½ teaspoon salt. The pan will be very full, but the puffballs will shrink in size considerably. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the puffballs have released and evaporated their moisture and the cubes have turned golden in spots, about 10 minutes. So trying to grow puffballs is quite hard, but not impossible. But if you really want to see if you can make it work, it doesn’t hurt to try. Here is how you can try to grow your own puffball mushrooms: Serves 4. * * * * * You can prepare the puffball crusts for these pizzas several days ahead and refrigerate them, or you can even prepare them and freeze them to have on hand when the pizza craving hits. 3. Puffball Pizza They range in size from the 1-inch-long dwarf or pygmy puffer to the freshwater giant puffer, which can grow to more than 2 feet in length. They are scaleless fish and usually have rough to spiky skin. All have four teeth that are fused together into a beak-like form. Diet your favourite pizza toppings - ham, pepperoni, salami, onions, peppers, tomatoes, etc. (You don't need to add mushrooms, since the puffball is a giant mushroom and will provide that umami mushroom flavour.)

Soft & Spiky: Made from premium-quality rubber, the soft spikes on the ball offer a unique texture, enhancing sensory engagement and providing a massage-like feel. Set a pot of salted water to boil. Cook the pasta until almost cooked. Remove it about 2 minutes before it would be done. It should still be somewhat firm in the center. Scoop out ½ cup of the pasta water and set aside. Drain the pasta. I think both are potentially true, and it really depends on which species of puffball you’re harvesting. Cleaning Puffball Mushrooms Amazingly, the meat of some pufferfish is considered a delicacy. Called fugu in Japan, it is extremely expensive and only prepared by trained, licensed chefs who know that one bad cut means almost certain death for a customer. In fact, many such deaths occur annually. Population

If inhaled in large quantities, Puffball spores can lead to Lycoperdonitis which causes inflammation of the alveoli in the lungs. This was discovered through an old nosebleed cure; however, I don’t know if contracting Lycoperdonitis can cure nosebleeds… Giant puffballs (Calvatia gigantea) are the largest and most common type of puffball in most regions. They are found all over Europe and North America. True puffballs will be solid white inside. Anything else is a different type of mushroom that may cause an upset stomach or even severe poisoning. They’re usually found in grassy open meadows and fields. They tend to like well-fertilized areas like lawns and golf courses. But you can also sometimes find them in the undergrowth of deciduous forests. I'd never eaten them before (my mom has cooked them, but I was never home at the time). I have now developed an intense love affair with these giant mushrooms. One of the monsters weighed four pounds, one weighed seven and a half pounds, and the biggest one weighed fifteen pounds!

There are a few nasty look-a-likes, which is why cutting the mushroom in half is an important key to identifying which Puffball you have found. Puffballs aren’t like many other types of mushrooms that have an extensive mycelial network under the ground. Most mushrooms will come up in the exact same spot every year, since the fungus underground doesn’t move. Before you even cut into a puffball, the outside should be perfectly white. Once they are too old, they tend to start turning yellowish or greenish on the exterior as well.

Battering and frying is another popular way to cook up puffballs. Although this is the least healthy approach, so it’s not the best if you’re looking for something a bit lighter. Earthballs are easily identified though, as they have a tough warted skin, giving them their other common name ‘The Poison Pigskin Puffball’. In a third shallow bowl or pie plate, stir together the Parmesan cheese, cornmeal, garlic powder, and pepper. Stress Relief: For those with fidgety fingers or anxiety, these balls act as a calming tool, offering a soothing tactile experience that can help focus and de-stress the mind. Once you’ve got as many spores as you can into the jar of water, put a lid on the jar, gently shake it, and set it somewhere for two days where it won’t be disturbed.

Customer reviews

Cut the required amount of slices from the puffball, and peel or cut off the outer skin. Brush each side of the slice with olive oil. Puffballs are very hard to grow commercially since they grow differently than other types of mushrooms. You’ll have about the same level of success as trying to grow chanterelles, morels, or truffles. It’s hard to go wrong with puffball recipes, so feel free to experiment. The one thing I wouldn’t recommend is boiling them. From my experience, they come out mushy and not very appealing. Serves 4 - 6. * * * * * Who doesn't love pasta, cheese, and tomato sauce? This easy weeknight family comfort food classic is made even better with the addition of little pillows of puffball. You can double the amount of puffball in this recipe for more creamy deliciousness. 6. Cheesy Puffball Pasta Bake Insects love mushrooms, and puffballs are no exceptions. So if you see any bugs on the bottom of your puffballs, cut them out right away.

The texture of a puffball is like a very dense damp sponge when you cut into it. Peel off the outer rind (either pull it off or cut it off with a knife), and cut the puffball into slices. The rind can cause gastrointestinal upset in some people. If the inside is any colour other than pure white, don't use it. Yellow, brown, or purple means the spores are starting to form and it is no longer good to eat. To freeze, lay the uncooked cheese-coated puffball slices onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet, not touching each other. Freeze them until solid, then store them in a sealed heavy-duty, zip-top bag in the freezer for up to 3 months. Fry the slices directly from frozen, then add the tomato sauce and mozzarella and bake as directed. When you get the puffball home, start by filling a one gallon jar with water. To maximize your chance of success, try to use non-chlorinated water. To extend the life of your puffballs, you need to chill them as soon as possible. If you get them in the fridge right away, they should have a great shelf life.Focus & Calm: Acts as a great fidget tool to help individuals concentrate and offer a sense of calm. Heat the oil over medium heat in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan or dutch oven. Add the minced garlic, ginger, and jalapeno or chili flakes. Cook and stir for 1 minute. The mushrooms, I cooked and canned and froze (35 pints of canned mushrooms plus a half dozen bags of frozen ones).
