Among the little-known mushrooms, there are someexotic - mushroom umbrella edible. This species includes three varieties: umbrella white, variegated and blushing. All of them belong to saprotrophs, grow at the same time, appear in the same places. The edible umbrella mushroom amazes the imagination with its size; it reaches unprecedented size on the spacious sunny edges: a cap diameter of 50-60 cm, a leg height of 40-45 cm. It seems strange that these specimens are edible.
Umbrella - mushroom (photo above), which refers to 4categories. Although few of the mushroom pickers venture to collect these giants because of their similarity to the mushroom and toadstools. The lamellar fruit body has a cap on average 15-25 cm in diameter, but it can be much more. In young mushrooms, it is always egg-shaped, convex, then straightens, becoming like an umbrella. The cap has a peculiar tubercle in the center. Large brown scales remain in the adult fruit body on the entire surface of the fungus. The edges hang down slightly, have a fringe. A very specific type of cap suggests the idea that this type cannot be edible. Giant size and unusual appearance are more like a fly agaric and toadstool.
Leg very long, brown, in diameter 2-3cm, up to 30-50 cm high. At the point of contact with the ground is always thickened. The surface is scaly, the flesh is hard, which is why the legs are often rejected during processing. There is a ring on the body, which can be easily moved up and down, since it is attached freely. Only edible umbrellas have a characteristic “serpentine” or scaly pattern, and no poisonous counterparts - this is the main distinguishing feature.
The plates contain white spore powder. In a young mushroom, they are white, then reddish streaks appear. The reddening umbrella is distinguished by its smooth leg and brown pulp at the break.
Найти грибы зонтики съедобные можно по всему the globe. Their distribution is so wide that almost any deciduous or mixed forest can boast of these giants. They can also be found in the fields, meadows, in park areas. Fruit bodies appear at the height of summer and grow until the end of September, especially resistant ones easily survive October frosts, although they lose their beautiful appearance. You can see them in glades, forest edges, along roads and even in garden plots. In well-lit places can form impressive colonies, the so-called "witch rings."
An edible mushroom umbrella is usually not harvestedfor future use, it is good in boiled and fried form, but not suitable for preservation. At the same time, only caps are taken from very large specimens for cooking. When choosing them you need to be extremely careful. As soon as the umbrella head opens completely, the mushroom becomes unusable.
