Head-Sized MUSHROOMS! Pick + Cook 3 Ways - LOCAL FOOD DELICACY!

video description

Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2

Ayutthaya, Thailand - Just an hour from Bangkok, we had an opportunity to pick, cook, and eat - giant head-sized golden mushrooms! What I immediately liked, is that they do grow the mushrooms and farm them, but they do it in a very natural way, using organic natural methods, and the mushrooms grown naturally in the soil under the trees next to the river. Hed Dab Dao ( ) - In Thai the mushrooms literally translate to turtle liver mushrooms - but I can assure you there s no turtle and no liver in this video. We debated why they are called turtle liver mushrooms, and eventually we decided - and don t hold us accountable to this, it s just our guess - the mushrooms sort of have a liver texture, and they sort of look like a turtle from the top - so Turtle liver mushrooms. I did some research in English, and I believe that they are some type of King bolete mushrooms. After harvesting some literal head sized golden mushrooms to eat, we then went to cook them. In order to cook all the mushroom dishes, he first sliced then boiled the mushrooms for about 5 minutes, then set them in cool water. From there, he made the three different Thai mushrooms dishes. The mushrooms were the highlight, they have an amazing texture, soft and tender, and just perfectly slimy, almost to the point where they melt in your mouth while being hearty and meaty - or livery - at the same time. It was my first time to try King bolete mushrooms ( ) and I loved them! Thank you for watching this Thai food video, and hope you re having a fantastic day!

Fun fact: all of you pick the mushrooms the wrong way.
You always cut close to the base and leave the roots (I don't remember the english word for it, so let's just call them roots) in the earth.
You should never fully remove the whole mushroom from the earth.

The color is fantastic and the flavors must be layer upon layer considering the inosilates in the mushrooms and the aminos in the pla rah for the dressing. mind blowing!
