[@DaveDVideoMaker]

@@NexusAkayuki My grandmother picks the mushrooms from the forest.

[@FakeMaker]

Us Slovaks love our mushrooms, but we generally forage them. Mushroom foraging is passed from generation to generation, like which mushrooms you can eat, which are poisonous, which grow where and when etc. I learned mushroom foraging from my grand grandma, she was 87, we grabbed handmade baskets and strolled around the forest the day after a heavy rain. We got back with our baskets and pockets full of mushrooms of at least a dozen edible species. We spent the whole evening cutting them into thin strips to dry and store them. Every time I make a creamy mushroom soup from dried mushrooms, all I think about is my time I spent with her. If I ever have any descendands, mushroom foraging is one of the things I want to teach them. I really don't know why, but it just feels magical, everything from strolling through the forests, the smell of the fresh mushrooms, the time spent with family. My eyes are getting wet, someone's cutting onions in here.

[@TheSlavChef]

@@FakeMaker I guess it is a slav thing, we also forage a lot of mushrooms here, I remember every weekend going in the forest with babushka and dedushka.

@@TheSlavChef Yeah, it feels like it's the norm in Slavic countries, but not so much elsewhere.

[@maddiesmenagerie8853]

@@darkhelmet12e47 fungi are surprisingly sensitive at times. Also, the fruiting bodies of fungi (mushrooms) decay at insane rates. You have mere days to harvest, distribute, and sell these mushrooms, and they essentially decompose by the second. In some truffle species, I believe they literally lose value by the hour as well and even start tasting worse in that time (and truffles cannot be cultivated like this). Any mushrooms which aren’t sold in that time are losses these small homegrown farmers have to cut. Some species like the aforementioned truffle and the matsutake ONLY grow under the most perfect of conditions as mycorrhizal fungi with plants, and some ONLY symbiosis with one type of plant in particular. Its really impossible for us randos in the youtube comment section to understand just how difficult it is to grow these strange, complex organisms in our homes, and in my opinion its a bit brash to jump to conclusions about the craft without first doing it ourselves with the same species.

For boiling a pure liquid, like milk, there used to be a noisy old timey solution of a thick round flat glass that covers a lot of the bottom, and keeps clattering (moving the milk in the bottom a lot) to prevent burning. How effective it was in practice i don't know, as i have never used it

[@internetuser8922]

I've often considered getting a hotplate with magnetic stirring functionality for culinary purposes.

[@rfldss89]

14:10 mushrooms are great bioaccumulators. They sequester heavy metals in specific proteins, which renders them completely harmless and allows mushrooms to survive even in very polluted areas. Of course this also means you have to be careful where you go foraging, since the heavy metals are released again once you eat the mushrooms ^^

[@maritimemisfits3360]

Since your videos are practically scientific food journals sometimes, it should then be worthwhile to point out that the steaming at 95 C and atmospheric presure *disinfects* the substrate, not sterilize. Sterilization involves killing of spores too which need an autoclave, that achieves a temperature of 121 C at 15 psi. Superheated steam in a pressure cooker basically.

[@zachsalmi9920]

You can 100 percent sterilize equipment below 121C. They do it for such a long time (18 hours) that the low temperature of 95C is enough.

[@lucasz8892]

@@zachsalmi9920 Yes. The key to sterilization is time, pressure, and heat. Using an autoclave drastically reduces time since it's pressurized, but that doesn't mean you can't sterilize without it. Large tubs like their steam sterilizer are typically used because you can store a lot more of it than in an autoclave

[@silverfur11]

@@nope110 In order for the temperature of steam to reach 121C it has to be pressurized, steam is only 100C (boiling point of water) in an open environment (IE pot with no lid on a stove). To get to 121C it has to reach 1.1 BAR or about 15 PSI in a sealed vessel.

Use as a far-right symbol The Gadsden Flag has also been used as a symbol by far-right groups and individuals.[23] In 2014, the flag was used by Jerad and Amanda Miller, the perpetrators of the 2014 Las Vegas shootings who killed two police officers and a civilian.[24] The Millers reportedly placed the Gadsden Flag on the corpse of one of the officers they killed.[25][26] The Gadsden flag was featured prominently in a report related to the January 6, 2021 storming of the United States Capitol.

The tips for these mushrooms work for all types of mushrooms if anyone is curious ;)

Always good to know how to grow some mushrooms. Never know when you might get very into mushrooms, you know.

Yeah, think about growing some cubesins

I had a friend in college who farmed mushrooms under his bed in his dorm room. I know he would sell and eat them sometimes, but I don't recall him ever cooking them...

[@Julius_Engels-Greer_the_Third]

Man, the mushroom growing terminology gave me strong flashbacks to college days...

[@KillItAndBurnIt]

Seeing a Don't Tread On Me flag and the American Flag right next to each other sure set off some alarm bells for me xD

[@colinfew6570]

It's funny how everyone who grows or is into foraging mushrooms always seems like hardcore hippies who like the magic variety as much as the gourmet.

@Micheal Flores stfu

[@pepearown4968]

That’s easy. Just wait until nighttime, get some bonemeal, and then the mushroom will become giant! After that, tear down the giant mushroom, and keep repeating until you have enough mushrooms. (Use mycelium to be able to do this during the day.) You can also wait for them to spread in the dark, but I don’t see how that method’s effective.

[@Geffro]

Even easier when you have a bonemeal farm, composting all that moss. Don't ask why the moss has bonemeal in it though

[@hinojosa3]

I really got to give it to you Adam the last few months I have had a notification come up on my phone at 1:00 central time on the DOT every time you upload a video. So satisfying in man you really know how to hold a schedule! Appreciate the amazing content so many amazing recipes you've given us all!

Adam, I just want to say I’ve really been enjoying your content recently. These informational videos are so interesting to watch and you explain things so well I’ve just been binge watching your videos. The wheat mini series has been my favorite so far. Seeing this side of fungi has opened my eyes and inspired me to grow some of my own. I can’t thank you enough for doing what you do.

[@RyanLackey]
