I used to hunt “coral” mushrooms by Mt. St. Helens before it blew. I also pulled four massive puffer mushrooms out of my yard this year. 8” in diameter. I cut them up like steaks and mixed them in food like tofu. They were excellent.
It’s interesting. My wife gets ill quite a bit and gets VERY ill. She hates mushrooms and won’t touch seafood (another favorite of mine).
Maybe she and I need to have a discussion.
