Sometime in early September, we discovered several large patches of leggy mushrooms growing throughout the backyard. There were so many of them growing that we were motivated enough to conduct a simple spore test so that we could find out if they were safe to eat. The spore test showed a white film, instead of black, which I understand would have meant the mushrooms were toxic. We made a Hungarian Mushroom Soup recipe (from the Sabbat’s Almanac) using our home harvest and two mixed boxes of mushrooms from Hi-Fi Mycology.
