A puffball, sliced in halfFirst there was the Friday Farm Side frolic with farcical fungi.
Then came Saturday.
A red Ford pick up rattled up behind the house just after we came in from chores.
A familiar and friendly face appeared at the back door bearing a surprise gift.
One of our good friends read the Farm Side on Friday, walked out his door on Saturday, and found a fat puffball on his lawn. Since he was coming this way for parts he dropped it off.
Close upSo I cooked a bit.
And here it is.....fried puffball.
Looks like a big old marshmallow.
ReplyDeleteWow! Interesting and it fried up nice!
ReplyDeleteJoated, it kinda does, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteAva, looks better than it tastes. It is good, but very, very rich. You can't eat much at once. lol
I've never tasted a giant puff ball. I've tried several other wild fungus.
ReplyDeleteWell? Am I missing something?
Yummy?
Tell you what. My favorite after morels is sulphur shelf.
PS Just saw your comment about it being rich :0)
