Foraging and Cooking with wild edible mushrooms from Saint Andrew’s Forest Farm

1 Comment
We found quite a few Lactarius indigo or Indigo Milkcap mushrooms during the summer and early fall of 2023.
They were so pretty and just amazed us each time we saw them. They are michorizal with a number of deciduous and coniferous trees including pine and oak. We found them in a number of places. Up top along the driveway, along South Trail and in the forest in multiple locations.
We’ve learned to cook our wild mushrooms very well on high heat (7ish) for 20 minutes. We start cooking them in a dry already hot skillet. After 10 minutes, we add some olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper.

While they cooked they smelled a little bit of fish. Once cooked, this wasn’t detectable in smell or taste. We used these to top our pizza pie.
