I will say it did take me working up some pluck to follow through but I did and continue to exist.
I came across 3 growing in my yard and I had promised myself the next time I come across some that haven’t "inked out" I would give them a bash.
I had spotted them early morning and when I was ready to cook them late afternoon the largest of the three was starting to "ink" at the bottom tip, so it may have been okay but I was already skittish so gave that one a miss.
I was anxious and could feel it in my gut when I placed them in the pan with butter, and at the same time wondered what kind of "pluck" I might end up on if I wasn’t to die.
The wife was not impressed when I told her I had cooked and eaten them (too late I cried).
The bottom line is they were a little disappointing after all the hype (my hype).
I fried them in butter and added a pinch of salt and a little ground black pepper.
They had a very mild nutty mushroom taste and I suspect the nuttiness was from the butter.
Been there done that and class the experience as overrated.
