Chicken Of The Woods ( Laetiporus Sulphureus ) , Fresh & Edible - 250g
Professionally Foraged in Ayrshire , Scotland
Said to taste like chicken to some, it has the same texture as chicken and is good in stews as a vegan meat alternative. Best eaten young as the older specimens become woody and acrid to the taste.
Should be cooked before consumption. Some people can have a mild allergic reaction to a bacterium that grows naturally on this mushroom - so only a small amount should be tried when first tasting .
