I was impressed by this colony (is that the right word?) of Laetiporus sulphureus (w.wiki/J2nD) 👀

My dog was just happy to be out in the woods 🐶🌲❤️

@nisemikol this lovely mushroom has a texture exactly like chicken, and takes the flavor of every dish it's put into.

@deepmud@mas.to once or twice, when harvested at its juiciest, my results could maybe have been described as being pretty close to chicken, but in my experience L. sulphureus is never gonna fool someone who's expecting actual chicken. That's okay, though! I like mushrooms, and I enjoy the unique texture and flavor of this species. My favorite application so far has been spring rolls 😋
