  • In this video, I explain how to identify the blusher, which is a group of Amanita mushroom species that are extremely common in the Southeastern US. Edible though not particularly sought after in North America, blusher mushrooms in the eastern US are collectively called Amanita amerirubescens group.
    I also explain a few mushroom hunting basics: How to recognize the Amanita genus, how to collect mushrooms for identification, and the several fungal lifestyles that affect where and how and when to find wild mushrooms.

    I believe I found some of these in my yard today and did a search for it. Your video popped up when I searched for blusher. The funny thing is I spoke to you about mushrooms at Ignite this weekend. How random that your video popped up.

    This os one we stagnated on for quite a while, but as quoted in our mushroom bible: Once you get a feel for its distinctive appearance you will be able to spot a Blusher at 30 paces. And it is delicious.

    Thank you, Anna!! I know I have found this mushroom and discarded it out of caution. I don't like wasting edible mushrooms!!

    very lively and accurate presentation; lacks one important detail: blushers are hemotoxic when raw. need 10mn heating up to 50°c and straining the cooking water.

    Wow, Hi Anna, George here. Here being 4,000 feet elevation near Cashiers NC. I have recently harvested some Reishi mushrooms. I was working on a large island countertop I built, varnishing it and decided to go have a look for some mushrooms. wouldnt you know I find varnish shelfs! Anna, I am wondering, do you know of any toxic lookalikes to the Reishi? Smiling, it is really nice to have you via video back in my kitchen. Smiling, George.

    If I remember correctly you spent some time in Washington, do those grow out here.? I don’t think I’ve seen them before.

    Do you get a lot of A. chrysoblema there in the Piedmont? I just found (or think I did) a patch in SW Ohio, didn't see an ID video from you on these.
