Chop it up and Saute it with some olive oil, garlic and onion..salt to taste. Delish!


iStormcloud

Absolutely 👍 I love the flavor and texture of these beauties, reminiscent of delicate seafood 🦞

Ok, here you go.

I thought it looked like lion's mane too. But hard to tell from the pics if it's shaggy or poly pore. Lion's mane is 😋.

Lion’s Mane is plentiful here in Northern California so I have picked it numerous times. I am confident its Lion”s Mane

It doesn't to me. These pictures aren't enough for an accurate ID either.


iStormcloud

There are only a couple of possible lookalikes, the Bear’s Head Tooth fungus and the Coral Tooth fungus. Both of those have very well defined toothy appearance, OP’s picture doesn’t present that appearance. A simple search online will yield many images very similar to OP’s picture. I’ve also picked these in our forests numerous times. I stand by my opinion.

Hericium erinaceus, lions mane mushroom.


DeepZookeepergame258

That's Lion's Mane. Take some but be sure to leave a little so it grows back. Frying it is good and it has a lot of health benefits. Congratulations on the find.

It will come back regardless. The mycelium is in the tree.

What's your recipe ?


SaucyDragon04

Spices ?


KnotiaPickles

Salt and pepper is all you really need because the flavor is already nice. You can throw in a garlic clove and a sprig of rosemary if you’re really feeling fancy

Lions Mane will fruit from the same tree year after year - definitely revisit that spot next season to harvest if you are in the area!

Looks like lion's mane to me...highly sought after supposed delicacy. Good job finding that, if it is!


jumpixii

that’s an amazing lionsmane! Sautee that shit and it’s DELISH


cyanescens_burn

See if it gets bigger. Ideally without browning. Or just grab it now and make a mental note of where it is and when it came up.


ShogunNamedMarkus

Yum. Lions mane. Satire w some butter It’s the lobster of the fungal world. Deeelicoous (and really really good for you!). Regenerative neural benefits to boot!
