Blunderbuss Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Right, dunno if this will work as I'm on my phone. My daughter is out for a walk near Hebbden Bridge, and I'm on a number 36 bus on Park Lane in London. She's just texted me pics of some mushrooms she's seen. If I can manage to post them I'd appreciate some help to I'D them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pob Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Please check elsewhere, but I think that number 2 is an Amethyst Deceiver. If it is, and despite the name, they are good eating. Use them cooked whole. Like I say, please do check in a good mushroom guide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

activeviii Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Amethyst Deceiver. Nick and I picked a load of these a short while ago. did a good breakfast with them and then I made a mushroom and cheese soup. they are brownie purple but when you pick them they then start turning a deeper purple.

Mr pigeon Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Yes amazing colours. Especially raw on white fish, scares the daylights out of ur dinner guests. I see a lot of these when I take people foraging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
