All these little mushrooms popped up in one of our gardens after the rain. There are perhaps 20 of them. They fall in that broad classification known as LBMs. LBM is a technical mycological term that stands for little brown mushroom, or, in some circles, little boring mushrooms. If you look at the third picture down, you can see a veil or lace-like residue around the edges of the underside of the cap. That suggests to me that these are in the genus Cortinarius, the largest genus of mushrooms. These mushrooms, when young, have a cortina or veil between the stalk and cap. There are a huge number of species in this genus. Many of them are poisonous, and they are hard to identify to species (at least by me). I recall from last year that they have rusty-brown spore prints.

Barbara, the wild mushroom deal isn’t that tricky if you have a bit of self restraint. In Ontario there are about 1600 species of mushrooms. Of the 1600 there are maybe 20 that are tasty, and very distinctive. It is fairly easy to cough up about $20 for a year of membership in a mushroom club and learn how to identify say the 10 easiest edible ones. Once you have learned to identify even as few as 10 mushrooms you will be able to find tasty edibles any time from when the apple trees bloom until the ground freezes solid. The trick is to only eat from your short list of mushrooms you have learned and simply ignore or photograph the rest. And spending a summer morning strolling through the forest listening to the birds and looking for mushrooms is a pretty nice way to spend some time.
I don’t think I would ever be brave (or educated) enough to eat mushrooms I picked.
Here’s the thing Barbara. We only eat mushrooms we can 100% identify. Most of the mushrooms we eat are very distinctive and don’t have poisonous lookalikes. I’ve also read a number of books and taken a course on mushroom identification. As well, my brother Salvelinas has shown me a lot, and going picking with somebody experienced helps a lot. Salvelinas has been foraging for mushrooms for years and since he’s still alive, I think he’s got it down.
These mushrooms came up yesterday and today they’re already dried up and whithered away. Spectacular!
