Ingredients for mushroom soup - serves 6
Hi all.
Back in Zambia and the Cat's mother will join me in a week.
The mushroom is 14 inches diameter.
They do come bigger though.
This one cost about USD 0.55

That would be interesting to slice up and fry.

Hammer, it is the kind that is big and white/brown and it grows in the forest.
Eirc, it is edible and has a very nice texture - Oom Kees does not pay 55c for something he cannot eat.
Bob, fried, boiled, roasted whatever you want to do. It is good food.

I keep trying to imagine what a farm of these looks like; it seems like it would resemble some sort of landscape in a science fiction movie.
