Nuke Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 As far as I know there are no other mushrooms that you can mistake it for, here in Sweden we call it black trumpet mushroom. They are absolutely delicious fried in olive oil together with some garlic and a touch of ground white pepper. Tastes like a very nice well hung piece of ribeye so pour yourself a nice glass of red wine with it and really enjoy yourself. /Markus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
