The Fungi world (97) : Blusher

The Blusher got its name because its flesh reddens wherever it is damaged.

Poisonous if raw but edible if cooked. It’s one of the few fungi where the toxin is destroyed by the cooking process.
But fungi newbies have to watch out, as the Blusher can easily be confused with the deadly poisonous Panther Cap !

Moreover, this fungus is much too beautiful to be picked for the kitchen table…….

Dutch name : Parelamaniet
German name : Perlpilz
Latin name : Amanita rubescens
