These 25 Types Of Mushrooms Are Grown Around The World For Both Food and Medicine

@@logic3686 I can't disagree with your statement, however... Any person with a cell phone and data plan can post "informative videos" with tremendous ease. I've watched a lot of videos pertaining to various subjects that were full of undisclosed risks, and some that were entirely false. While the internet has been a learning tool more valuable than anything humans have ever experienced, it is also the greatest source of false information. At least encyclopedias were full of verified information and could be used as academic references. The same can't be said for KZbin or Wikipedia.

I was like wtf but its cool

[@KFrost-fx7dt]

As a former forestry student I've always objected to how people call every edible fungus a "mushroom". Mushrooms have a stem and cap by definition. Many of the edible fungi are not mushrooms but bracket fungi or jelly fungus. But I can understand how that might not sound as appealing haha! Call them what you will, I like to call them by their nicknames. "Hen of the woods" and "wood ear" are the neatest sounding names.

[@fusion9619]

Perhaps the word itself needs refinement? I'm new to this stuff, but it seems like a more useful way to use "mushroom" would be to mean the fruiting part of a mycelium.

[@Dewkeeper]

Well it sure is hell of a lot better than 'fruiting body' *shiver*. "Oh hey want me to add some fungal fruiting bodies to your pizza?"

[@YelDohan]

​@@Dewkeeper I would very much enjoy having some ascocarps and basidiocarps on my pizza.

[@NathanHaaren]

so a truffle isnt a mushroom? at least it is a fun gi!

[@gussampson5029]

As a normal human being who doesn't have the time to specialize in 5,000 different areas of natural science, I object to the idea that colloquial English should have to use specialized language in order to appease unnecessarily nitpicky nerds on the internet. The word "mushroom" existed long before the science of mycology and referred to a variety of natural phenomena that humans observed. Only later did these things get differentiated based upon the opinions of a few people studying them in scientific detail. You're more than welcome to your specific scientific language but leave the rest of us alone. Adding in unnecessary complexity does little to improve the human condition. Those who are interested in mycology can learn the specialized language if they want.

[@fusion9619]

I found a huge patch of morels when I was like 9 years old, but I didn't know what it was and thought it was an alien infestation and I ran away in terror.

I remember my mom buying a box of grow your own button mushrooms. We had a perfect cold dark stone basement so they grew like crazy. I remember as a kid walking down into the basement every day to go check on them. This really makes me want to go out a buy another grow kit 🥰

[@miracleshappen4483]

As a vegan I can confirm that the use of mushrooms is on the increase because, as we develop more conscious eating habits, we definitely don't want to miss out in taste. Big meaty mushrooms are used as meat substitute which can be cooked grilled, caramelized with a little oil or deep fried if coated in flour 😋. Mushrooms are very healthy, delicious and environment friendly. Thumbs up!!! 👍👌💖

[@rosedimasi5202]

You raised my knowledge of some edible mushrooms by leaps and bounds...thank you. Was wondering why no one ever mentions the corral mushroom. They are delicious and they grow in my local park woods every year.

[@Penelzpix]

You didn't mention one of my favorites...chanterelles! I used to collect them in the Bay Area of SF & sell them to restaurants! Super delicious!!!

[@Godot2011]

or Porcini (Boletus edulis) also called the Cep. This is one of the tastiest of all mushrooms.

Yes Morels and chanterelles.

[@professortrog7742]

And Pied du mouton, a fabulously tasty one.

[@grxtafritz]

[@Alimem54]

And THIS is how I got invested in mushrooms.

[@thisismyname3328]

Do I like mushrooms? No. Did I watch this and find myself utterly captivated by mushrooms? Yes. I've learnt something, so that's good.

[@seancostello26]

the idea that you don't like mushrooms is entirely due to the fact that you've only bought commercially available mushrooms from stores. Try a morel or a chanterelle or a puffball, or some lions mane, and you'll change your mind very quickly

[@natethegreatest1000]

Cook all the water out of your mushrooms with no oil before you add oil back into it. If you like the taste but not the texture, this will solve that problem.

[@luzellepampola5862]

Nice. I’m a shroom hunter and grower. Enjoy your videos! As a chef I have spent plenty on morels and chanterelles. My favorite? Psilly

[@crystalm4324]

Actually that’s the kind I’m looking for more info on growing. I’ve tried low doses in conjunction with lions mane to help a crippling 10 year depression, it’s working, but expensive. Growing my own makes more sense.

[@thefloweroflove2709]

Thank you for this, I really need to learn more about mushrooms because I love foraging so I need to safe cause I get excited at seeing any shroom when I’m out about. I’m definitely going to grow some, my friend grows them. When you are vegan, mushroom is your meat, I love it.

[@rei_cirith]

Wood ear mushroom (like most mushroom when cooked right) is not supposed to be rubbery, it's supposed to have a bit of a crunch to them. Not sure if you're not cooking them right, or something else. (Don't know much about mushrooms, but I've eaten a lot of these somewhat regularly growing up)

[@mrcrabowski]

I'm glad I found this video. In Europe, mainly in Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland + maybe eastern Europe most of people commonly know (can safely recognize in the wild and know where to seek them) up to 50 different WILD mushrooms including poisonous ones... of course except those which don't grow in Europe and/or are not known worldwide (like shitaki). Majority of people go mushroom picking regularly and it's kind of relaxing activity. When I tried to find something about "mushrooming" in USA I was surprised that it's almost non-existing. When you say mushroom, 99 % of people can imagine only white or brown field/button mushroom as you said and that's mindblowing to me.

[@Pitusha]

I spent some years in China and I was and still am amazed at how we can find most of the mushrooms that he mentioned on supermarkets, specially gourmet supermarkets there... I specially loved the Nameko (orange and slimy) mushrooms added to soups, it gives the soup an amazing taste and texture. Another rare mushroom that I loved there was this "Strawberry Mushroom", or Paddy Mushroom, but you need to but and use it immediately... It spoils really quick. You just need to cut it in half to use it.

[@kenfletcher1240]

I can buy about half these mushrooms in my regular supermarket here in China.

[@fisharmor]

I regularly find shimeji mushrooms sold as beech mushrooms. They're great for tempura.

[@kenfletcher1240]

Many mushrooms have different names. Shimeji is the Japanese name and beech mushroom is common in English.

The group are Ink Caps. Shaggy mane is one variety, but all ink caps dissolve into that nasty black goo (ink).

What mushrooms are able to grow in my area - rain forest/warm temperature/high humidity in above ground lava stone cellar? Currently, started enoki and shiitake from grain spawn.

[@barbarahouk1983]

TY for this video. I shared it with many.

[@FPmyr]

I'm not sure if they are only popular in Germany but Cantharellus cibarius (Chanterelle) and Boletus edulis are very tasty. I really recommend trying chanterelles if you haven't yet.

[@jollyjokress3852]

You cannot cultivate Boletus edulis (Steinpilz) because they need a plant partner to grow - they are so-called mycorrhiza fungi.

[@entropic7768]

I love wood ear mushroom, has the same crunch as actual ears which at first I was squeemish about but now I enjoy

It’s been 2 years and I finally found the delicious mushroom that I ate at a mushroom soup restaurant in korea - The Tremella mushroom! I absolutely adore the texture and it tastes quite meaty but light and almost melts in your mouth.

[@NilsHouben]

It's fascinating, in germany and I believe that stands for most of central europe, we seldomly know any of these. And I go into the woods every year for mushrooms. One of my favorite local shrooms is the boletus - Boletus edulis (lat). Also very popular around here are Cantharellus cibarius and Pleurotus eryngii (sorry I dont know the english names). Great video!

[@TITAN0402]

It’s all very well you explaining how many mushrooms you know of that you can cultivate, but do you know any of their uses? Like what are they good for apart from just eating and for your general health. Also wood ear tastes great cut up small and used as a pizza topping, very good for ear aches and sore throats, makes you feel happier too.

[@FreshCapMushrooms]

Yes, totally, I should do a video of a broad overview of the uses :)

[@HenIsbjoernTer]

So cute! The mushrooms of course.

[@FruitingPlanet]

One of my favorites is "Sparassi crispa"(cauliflower mushroom), tastes amazing when breaded and fried, they can also be cultivated.

[@carinecampier]

I didn’t know of this one! Thank you !

[@btardedbot2.2.62]

Great video. Has made me be able to identify the wood ear mushroom and know its edible as well. My local woods are filled with them, a random golden coloured oyster variety, dryads saddle, turkey tail, red banded conk and similars, and many many mica's. There's one that pops up at end of summer exactly like that Milk Cap species aswell. But I not 100% sure weather it is milk cap, so i definitely won't be on a harvest menu any time soon. 🍄💚👍😎☮️

Are wild mushrooms traditionally picked in the wild to eat? Brazil is such a big country. Do you find a lot of different species when you go out?

[@wagnerlemgruberboechat6046]

@@FindInNature Not in fact. Brazilians do not pick in wild at all! There is a general belief that picking mushrooms from the wild is too dangerous. There are no experts or studies on the topic. Only a handful of chefs are trying to introduce native species. All mushrooms consumed in Brazil are grown. We have a lot of Shitake, Shampion and shimeji. Sometimes you find enoki and others, but it is not common. It is very sad....

[@FindInNature]

@@wagnerlemgruberboechat6046 I see. Yes, it's sad indeed, because I'm sure there is a lot of edible species. More to the south of Brazil where the climate is more temperate, there are probably a lot of species similar to those that are collected in Europe, North America and Asia!

[@miracleshappen4483]

I'm from Italy where the most popular and expensive mushroom is boletus edilis (porcino). You can find them in the woods and very occasionally at a grocery store but they are normally sold dehydrated (dry). We make pasta and risotto dishes with funghi porcini but they are also used to make sauces to put on top of polenta. The taste is incredibly strong and unique compared to other mushrooms I've eaten (I live in Asia), similar to shiitake but more earthy in taste. Why couldn't I find it in your list? Do you have them in North America? Thanks! 🇮🇹🤩🥰

I suppose some individuals may react that way with any coprinus species, although it's the Tippler's Bane mushroom (coprinus atramentarius) that is the one that must absolutely be avoided with alcohol. The chemical compound in the mushroom is the same as that found in the drug Antabuse, which is sometimes prescribed to chronic alcoholics for whom nothing else works.
