So apparently, it is mushroom season around here. It's been fairly dry, so I was not expecting a lot of fungi out in the woods but was quite wrong. I found one puffball about 2 weeks ago but didn't have a camera or my phone with me, so I went back out and took some pictures this time. Puffballs are bright white unless otherwise described in the Alt text.
Recipes and cooking suggestions are most welcome, thanks!

I’ve been processing the giant puffball mushroom since yesterday. I’m not going to bother making powder. I’m just busting the dried pieces up into smaller pieces. They can be added to soups and stews and such. The ones I dried in the oven are a darker colour because they were dried at a higher heat than the ones in my dehydrator. #PuffballMushroom #puffball #forager #FoodPreservation #Dehydration #mushroom #KitchenWitch

I went hiking with @Knightky in the woods near Guelph. I saw something glowing white and round as a redhead’s untanned arse. I got soooo excited. This is the biggest puffball I’ve ever found, and a definite highlight to my week. #foraging #Forager #mushroom #Puffball #PuffballMushroom #fungus #EdibleMushrooms
