You can’t eat this. It’s unsafe if it grows in dark, humid and corrosive places. Don’t take that risk. My colleague was poisoned by mushrooms when he ate in front of the building two years ago. He had his stomach washed and recovered. Dangerously speaking

The following is an introduction to the method of identifying poisonous mushrooms. It is only for supplementary knowledge. Don’t take it lightly

Poisonous mushrooms cannot be detected with a silver needle. I think To know whether mushrooms are poisonous, I have a trick here. Boil the mushrooms in water and add ginger at the same time. If the ginger turns black, it means the mushroom is poisonous. If it does not change color, it is not poisonous.

1. Growth zone. Edible non-toxic mushrooms mostly grow in clean grassland or on pine and oak trees, while poisonous mushrooms often grow in dark, moist and dirty areas.

2. Color. The surface of poisonous mushrooms is brightly colored, including red, green, jet black, purple and other colors. Especially purple ones are often highly toxic and easy to change color after picking.

3. Shape. The cap of non-toxic mushrooms is relatively flat, the umbrella surface is smooth, there are no wheels on the mushroom surface, and the lower part is sterile. The poisonous cap is convex in the center and has a strange shape. The mushroom surface is thick and hard, and there are bacterial rings on the stipe. The handle is slender or thick and easy to break.

4. Secretions. Tear off the stipes of picked fresh wild mushrooms. The non-toxic secretions will be as clear as water (sometimes white), and the mushroom surface will not change color after being torn off. The poisonous secretions will be thick and reddish brown and will easily change color in the air after being torn.

5. Smell. Non-toxic mushrooms have a special aroma, while poisonous mushrooms have strange smells, such as spicy, sour, and fishy smells.

6. Test. When picking wild mushrooms, you can rub green onions on the mushroom caps. If the green onions turn green-brown, it means they are poisonous. If they do not change color, they are not poisonous.

7. Cook test. When cooking wild mushrooms, put a few rushes, some garlic or rice and cook together. When the mushrooms are cooked, the rushes turn green or purple, which is poisonous. Those that turn yellow are non-toxic. Garlic or rice change color and are poisonous, but remain true to color without changing color. It is non-toxic.

8. Chemical identification. Take the suspected mushrooms collected or bought, take out the juice, soak it with paper, and immediately add a drop of dilute hydrochloric acid or white vinegar on it. If the paper turns red or blue, it is poisonous.
