Chicken Of The Woods Recipe – Best Recipe

This Chicken of the Woods recipe makes it easy to make a delicious wild mushroom with a texture and flavor that is similar to Chicken.

 

This tasty, abundant fungus is found in most forests across the country during summer and early autumn.
Nothing is more satisfying than grabbing something I found on a nature walk.
What about literal Chicken from the woods, though? It sounds almost too good to be true.

Is this mushroom really chicken-like?

It is common to say that “tastes like chicken” to make unusual dishes more appealing to consumers (opossums, squirrels, alligators, etc…
But, with this mushroom, I believe the phrase is true.
The flavor is not the only thing I love about the mushroom. But the texture of the meaty and stringy mushrooms does justice to their common name.
It’s not Chicken, but it’s really delicious.

How to identify Chicken Of The Woods Recipe

Chicken of the Woods can be identified easily because of its unique characteristics.

It is often easy to see the fungus from afar. You will see a bright orange mass that grows on the trunk, at the base of dying hardwood trees, or on large fallen logs.

The mushroom grows on large shelves, which change from bright orange or yellow at its base to pale yellow or even white at the edges.

The mushroom’s underside is covered with tiny pores. This makes it a polypore. It means that the spores of this mushroom are released from tiny tubes rather than gills. Neat!

Important Notes

• Some people can get sick from Chicken of the Woods. It can cause stomach upset if consumed in large quantities. Try it once, and then wait 48 hours.
• Avoid harvesting “Chicken of the Woods recipes” if it is grown on conifer or Eucalyptus trees. According to some reports, mushrooms can absorb toxins from these trees.
