I did have to answer that question quite a bit while I was doing my research (laughs). You know, people — especially during the pandemic — have taken up more nature hobbies, birding and things like that. But I keep noticing that artists and designers and architects and people in the arts are crazy about mushrooms! They're reading the Merlin Sheldrake book [ Entangled Life] and they're interested in the mycelium and how things are all connected in the woods. Mushrooms always have a place in the style of the moment, and in design. The highlight of this book was definitely the illustrations. The mushrooms were painted in such vivid colors and detail. I had to pause to show my roommates sometimes because they were that beautiful to look at. Only a small amount should be consumed the first time a new species is tried. People react differently to different mushrooms, and all mushroom species can cause an adverse reaction in a few individuals, even the common champignon. [12] It is a book I have dipped into several times while trying to identify some of the many Agaricus species that grow in my area. I will continue to use it as I try some of the recipes, and as a beautiful resource in training new amateur field mycologists."

Mushrooms should be identified a second time during preparation, and cooked unless it can be verified that the species can be eaten raw.

OCLC 13702933.Mushrooms should not be gathered that are difficult to identify. This applies especially to the mushrooms of the genera Amanita and Cortinarius, as well as "little brown mushrooms". I'm interested in contemporary environmental art, so I like to show students that their studios are much larger than just the little white rooms that we give them, and that they can use the entire campus — they can use the woods and the swamp and materials from the outdoors. While harvesting, the cap must be twisted off gently. For this, it is held gently with the forefingers, pressed against the soil and then twisted off. The base of the stalk wherein mycelial threads and soil particles cling must be chopped off. Some farmers harvest button mushrooms by chopping them at the soil level. Average Yield Only positively identified mushrooms should be eaten, and if one cannot positively identify a mushroom they should assume it to be poisonous and not consume it. [11]
