Do you make this yourself? Or are there products on the market? Sounds interesting.

- Alex3917 11y agoAll made myself. For the jerky I use this recipe: http://the3foragers.blogspot.com/2013/10/hen-of-woods-recipe-hen-jerky.html http://the3foragers.blogspot.com/2013/10/hen-of-woods-recipe... Except for that I substitute the regular maple syrup for smoked maple syrup from here: http://www.sugarbobsfinestkind.com/ http://www.sugarbobsfinestkind.com/ It's super easy, you just need a food dehydrator. For the chicken of the woods I usually just cook it with barbecue sauce and then throw it on pizza. And with the giant puffballs I think the best way is to slice them half an inch think, first cook them down a little in a pan and then bread and fry them and treat them like chicken parm. There are some recipes here: http://www.mssf.org/cookbook/puffballs.html http://www.mssf.org/cookbook/puffballs.html For each mushroom the basic thing to know is whether it's a mushroom that takes dairy or oil. Most of them only taste good if cooked in either butter or olive oil, but not both. Also, using veggie salt instead of regular salt tends to be key for whatever reason.
- jon-wood 11y agoYour comment on mushrooms working in either butter or oil is really interesting. Is there some way to know other than throwing some in each and seeing what happens?
- Alex3917 11y agoAsk people or look up recipes. But as a rule of thumb, most species traditionally eaten in the U.S. are going to be better with dairy, and most traditionally eaten in Asia will be better with oil.
