Lobster Mushroom

Mush-Rump Hunting for the Lobster Mushroom, aka Hypomyces lactifluorum, a delicious and easy to identify mushroom. The species metamorphosizes the unappetizing, short footed Russula, Russula brevipes, into a delicious edible. I love cooking them until brown, using avocado oil, basil, and butter. So good. Here, Erika Gagnon finds and cooks her first lobster mushrooms. Deliciousness.
