Funghi Porcini / cueillette de Bolets

There is nothing like getting up early and wandering alone in the mountains near Villars with the cow bells sounds as only sound around

The harvest was actually pretty good in this early season with one mushroom weighing some 860 grams!

Season starts now and lasts until end of September at that altitude, but you can also find them in many forest at any altitude from June to October.

The big reward comes in the evening, when cooking these wonders with pasta or risotto, with a glass of red, you’ll reach total bliss !

Feel free to email me for recipes ! and of course dont not pick any mushrooms, if you are not sure what you pick, a good idea would be to have them checked, usually police stations do.
