Mushroom season

There are some at other times of the year, but most in autumn.

This one we were not sure exactly what is was, but one of the French neighbours popped in today, and they all know what is good and what is not. He identified it as one called Trémoulet in french, not sure what it is in English. Some kind of bolete (porcini)

Here it is before it was picked. We had it in risotto. Yummy!

Doug found some other bolete he recognised and we get a lot of parasol mushrooms.

This is a parasol mushroom, it is big, but the tomatoes are cherry ones, so maybe not as big as it looks. This is the under side of it. Thay are not as tasty as the bolete perhaps, but pretty nice, and safe too as there is nothing similar.
