Boletus edulis commonly known in America as porcini is one of the most coveted mushrooms. Walking through a pine forest and looking for mushrooms is one of this life most satisfying activities that only Russians can fully appreciate.

Here are the fruits all the forest. The day is still young, I cannot fall asleep on my laurels and have to clean up the mushrooms and decide what to do with them. Probably will pickle and can them to bring a jar or two to Las Vegas, when I will fly in for Christmas.
