The wolves are beautiful mushrooms of pink or white color with a funnel-shaped hat. In the forest, they can be found from July to October in huge families, so that collecting a large basket is not difficult. But they do not eat fried and boiled - they are conditionally edible mushrooms and have a bitter taste. They are suitable only for salting. But salted or marinated volnushki for the winter is worth cooking - in this form they are tastier than many other mushrooms.
Cooking Features
Do not forget that the wind waves are conditionally edible mushrooms. This means that the preparation technology must be observed.
- First of all, wind sweets should be sorted, throwing out worms. Large and old mushrooms for pickling are also not suitable. Going over, all the mushrooms need to cut the legs by a third. Clean the caps from sticking litter, rub the most polluted places with a soft brush. At the same stage, waves are sorted by size.
- After cleaning and sorting, the wipe should be soaked in cold water. Water three times a day must be changed. After two days, the mushrooms should be washed, let the water flow, large specimens cut into 2-4 pieces.
- Before proceeding with marinating, the waves should be boiled until ready. They are considered ready when they sink to the bottom. Small ones will cook faster, larger time takes more. Considering that the waffles have already been cut into equal pieces, you can boil them all together, but it is better to boil the smaller ones in a separate saucepan to make a particularly beautiful and tasty preparation for the winter - for the festive table.
All other actions will depend on the selected recipe. They do not differ much: preparation of cans, preparation of marinade, unfolding of mushrooms in cans and rolling. Provided the jars have been sterilized and rolled up with metal lids, pickled water can be stored all winter at a temperature slightly below room temperature. If you close the cans with nylon caps, then you need to eat mushrooms for three months, and you can only store them in a cold place (refrigerator, cellar).
