    Happy Birthday! We grow wine caps too. We dehydrate the stems and make a mushroom powder for adding a little umami to dishes.🎉

    Happy birthday 🎉 I watch a lot of cooking channels, and a tip I picked up is to start mushrooms in a dry pan for more reliable browning. You add the oil or butter after the mushrooms have started to brown. Also, rinsing mushrooms in water is perfectly fine. Mushrooms only absorb a tiny amount of water that evaporates quickly during cooking, not affecting cook time or texture.

    There are those (including ex-wife and her family) who claim that "washing mushrooms" causes them to produce toxins. I've never seen any research that supports this. I grew up on a farm (sheep and milking cow), so the field mushrooms invariably came in contact with manure. My mum also took this one step further and peeled them ~ a learnt habit that took me decades to lose

    This is a good use for Chip Drop woodchips. The mushrooms will break them down much faster, typically in less than a year. Any kind of fungi will accomplish this, including native fungi, but you might as well grow wine caps or something else you like.

    Happy birthday, Jacques! I’ve grown those box-kit mushrooms indoors but am very hesitant to grow outdoors. Your videos have given me so much confidence and inspiration to give it a go. I’ve got an empty spot along my side fence that our neighbor’s redwoods keep shady throughout most of the day. Might be a perfect location to give this a try.

    If you fully dehydrate winecaps in a dehydrator (lowest heat) and then marinate/soak them for a couple hours in a jerky marinade (include liquid smoke), then throw them back in the dehydrator (higher heat), makes really excellent imitation jerky.

    You should try cooking them on a screaming hot dry pan. Cook them on a really, really hot dry pan until they are almost done, then about a minute or 2 before you're ready to pull them off, add a knob of butter, garlic, and any herbs you might want to add. Remove them from the heat, then add salt and pepper and stir. This is the best way to cook most any mushroom. It truly is great.

    I grow these under my chicken run - cuts the bacteria a lot and I got a TON of winecaps around the edges. Some were the size of my forearm. We gift a lot of dehydrated winecap as soup seasoning every year ^_^. Bonus, leather beetles like mulch for their nests and like the soft myceliated wood for their young, so big tasty grubs kept my hens turning the mulch in their run, feeding the mushrooms.

    Happy Birthday! I am also a huge mushroom enthusiast, cook them many different ways. When I have the time, I put some water in with them and then let them simmer until the pan is dry, throw in a little EVOO and any seasonings and fry them up. The flavor really gets concentrated, but the mushroom still has body and you can crisp them up to your preference at the end. Want to grow some here until a big pine tree we have, but some dog and turkey pressure have made me hesitate. Might just go with buckets or bags.

    That is a method I have heard of before but still haven't tried. On the next flush I will give it a go, I tend to like my mushrooms cooked on the drier side as I appreciate that texture more. You can try fencing off the area with a little hardware cloth to secure it!
