Cynthia A. Meyer - Comments on Mystery ID 79324 orange fungi She wonders if it might be "Chicken of the Woods," edible under specific conditions, as is "Hen of the Woods," under specific conditions, a highly prized mushroom which should be gathered only by mushroom experts. Readers are advised that a mistake in identifying mushrooms can be fatal if consumed. The information is posted to raise awareness of mushrooms and hope that one day there will be enough mushroom expertise right here to know the difference, and that maybe, one day mushroom culture and mushroom harvesting in the wild might offer business opportunities here. - CM. Click on headline for complete essay By Cynthia A Meyer Without a close up of the mushrooms it would be difficult to identify, however there is a tasty little morsel of fungi named "Chicken of the Woods" which not surprisingly is supposed to taste like chicken. I have seen one other Chicken of the Woods several years ago, but wrongly assumed since it was so brightly colored it may poisonous... It was not until recently when my son brought in a sister mushroom- "Hen of the Woods" - which looks more like a fluffy hen that I realize what a culinary morsel I passed by back then. - Cynthia A.
