Book excerpt: Known as the meat of the vegetable world, mushrooms have their ardent supporters as well as their fierce detractors. Hobbits go crazy over them, while Diderot thought they should be “sent back to the dung heap where they are born.” In Mushroom, Cynthia D. Bertelsen examines the colorful history of these divisive edible fungi. As she reveals, their story is fraught with murder and accidental death, hunger and gluttony, sickness and health, religion and war. Some cultures equate them with the rottenness of life while others delight in cooking and eating them. And then there are those “magic” mushrooms, which some people link to ancient religious beliefs. To tell this story, Bertelsen travels to the nineteenth century, when mushrooms entered the realm of haute cuisine after millennia of being picked from the wild for use in everyday cooking and medicine. She describes how this new demand drove entrepreneurs and farmers to seek methods for cultivating mushrooms, including experiments in domesticating the highly sought after but elusive truffles, and she explores the popular pastime of mushroom hunting and includes numerous historic and contemporary recipes. Packed with images of mushrooms from around the globe, this savory book will be essential reading for fans of this surprising, earthy fungus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Minnesota Mushrooms The present booklet is the fourth of a series of popular guides to the plants of Minnesota, designed for plant-lovers and for classes in botany in high school and college. An equally important object of the guide to mushrooms is to make available with safety the enormous annual crop of mushrooms, which is now almost entirely wasted through fear or neglect. It is perhaps idle to estimate the size or value of this crop, but if that part which is readily accessible is alone considered, the number of pounds will reach into the hundred thousands. Figured on the market price of the cultivated mushroom, the total value of the mushroom crop of the State can hardly be less than a million dollars. Just what would he the effect of utilizing this food supply is a matter of conjecture, hut there can be little doubt that it would prove fortunate from the standpoint of dietetics as well as of economics. The text has been made as simple and as concise as seems possible without sacrificing clearness. The plant-lover will find as he becomes acquainted with mushrooms in nature that they have many charms, apart from those of the palate, and that the study of appearance, behavior, etc., is as fascinating as with flowering plants. The first requisite however is to be able to strike up such an acquaintanceship, and this, together with the unlocking of a store of delicious food, is the chief object of the text. The student who has the time and interest for more extended work with the mushrooms will naturally refer to the more comprehensive books by Atkinson. McIlvaine, and Hard. In the preparation of keys and descriptions, Saccardo's "Sylloge Fungorum," Peck's "Reports," and the mushroom books just mentioned have been frequently consulted. While the majority of the illustrations are original, a large number have been taken from the mushroom books by Atkinson, Hard, Mcllvaine, Dumee, Michael, White, and from Freeman's "Plant Diseases." Grateful acknowledgment is made to these authors for such use. The writer is indebted to Dr. Edith Clements for the original water color drawings from which the color illustrations have been made, and for the working over of the recipes for cooking mushrooms. He wishes also to acknowledge the aid and interest of the members of the Minnesota Mycological Society, particularly Dr. Mary Whetstone, Miss Daisy Hone, and Mr. I. F. Lambert. Copies of "Minnesota Plant Studies" are furnished free to citizens of Minnesota, upon request to the undersigned. Ten copies are sent free to each high school, academy or college within the State, and additional copies are furnished at cost, twenty-five cents per copy. It is hoped that collectors will feel free at all times to send specimens to the department of botany to be named. Mushrooms can be sent through the mails readily, if they are wrapped in dry paper, and placed in a strong pasteboard box.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Michigan Mushrooms: A Few of the Common Edible Fungi Occurring in the State The abundance and variety of fleshy fungi found growing in dooryards, fields and woods at certain seasons of the year have doubtless attracted the attention of many persons in this State. These plants are especially numerous during the spring and autumn months and whenever there is a plentiful rainfall during the summer. However, they are usually passed by and left for the worms or scattered with a kick. Thus a free offering frequently near our very door-step may be neglected or spurned while the same product is being imported from foreign lands and sold for a high price in the markets. Naturally the question arises why pay fifty cents to one dollar a pound for mushrooms from France or for hot house grown material when a generous supply of the same, or of equally desirable species, is going to waste about us? There are many persons in our State who would be glad to eat our native mushrooms were it not for fear of poisoning. That this fear is well founded is shown by the fact that many cases of severe illness and even loss of life are annually recorded through carelessness in the indis criminate eating of fungi. Moreover the prevailing ignorance and superstition regarding these plants have added to the uncertainty which seemed to attend their use as food. And while this fear has often served a useful purpose in restrain ing many persons from carelessness in the eating of mushrooms, it has also prevented them from making use of a highly esteemed natural food product, obtainable often without expense other than the effort necessary to gather it.
