Mushrooms

I found them under the pine tree at the front of our house. These mushrooms are huge, the top is about 5 to 7 inches and about 9 inches tall.

What kind of mushrooms are these?


They are big, I'm even scared of touching it. This is the first time I seen mushrooms this big.

I think these mushrooms are not edible. I am so familiar with mushrooms because I grew up in the province and in a remote barrio. There are two mushrooms that I knew edible.
Those growing in dead trees are different.

Edward there are a lot of mushrooms in the US that are edible. I'm not a mushrooms expert kaya I can't tell. I rather buy my mushrooms in the grocery store.

MBL, that is what I wanted to know. I don't if they are edible. It would be nice if they are because they are huge and there are a lot of them. Yes, I love mushrooms too.

From the photos they look like amanitas, many of which are poisonous, some deadly. Don't eat anything unless it is identified by someone who really knows their stuff.

Thanks for the warning PB. No, like I said I didn't even touch it. And I rather buy my mushrooms in the grocery store or grow them myself.

Paksiw & Strawberry Banana Smoothie

Image
This is my FTF entry for this week. Paksiw (sour broth) frozen baby bonito (tulingan). I settled for frozen ones, because this is very hard to find in my area. Always eaten with ton of rice...lol I don't have any other vegetables to mix with it but the pepper. I was lazy to go out (shopping) with the heat we are having. And for dessert; strawberry banana smoothie. I was weeding my vegetable garden today and I was sweating a lot. What a nice drink to have! Very filling (sweet) and refreshing after soaking under a hot sun. For more FTF images, just follow the image below.

Mango Float

Image
They are in season now a days. I am talking about mostly any fruits. Here is my version of mango float that similar Filipino goes gaga about. Like I mentioned in my previous post, the sugar in this recipe is the killer. I can have this maybe once a year and I still prefer just plain mango anytime. This one was taken after a few hours in the freezer. You can see the cream and milk mixture are still runny. This one is taken the next day, when frozen. It turns out that DH love it. The only complaint he got was the taste is not even. He still wanted to make ice cream with the same ingredients. I can't wait to see how it would taste.
