HEXENRINGE...
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! View On proper Black
One of the first appearances of fairy rings comes from German-speaking Europe. Fairy rings were known as hexenringe or "witches rings". These rings were created by witches gathering and dancing in the forest for pagan rituals. Their energy left behind would create a 'fungus' and mushrooms would grow in their place. Many locals would see this as a warning sign, and avoid the area.
These here are Mousseron mushrooms,delicious small wild mushrooms from France. Mousseron mushrooms have a wonderful flavour with a soft and chewy texture. The smell and flavour of a Mousseron is reminiscent of Porcini mushrooms.
Mousserons can be found growing in groups or clusters called "fairy rings" because of the circular pattern formed when they produce.
A small, bell-shaped wild mushroom with an off-white to beige-brown colour with lacy, deep gills and very thin stems, the mousseron mushroom is rather full-bodied for its size and has a fleshy texture and earthy flavor. Its long, narrow stem is tough, but edible.
Nutritionally beneficial, mushrooms provide a source of riboflavin, niacin, potassium, phosphorus, thiamin, protein, fat, carbohydates, copper and crude dietary fiber.
MMM, they were lovely!
For years I 'experimented' in the studio, to get that Flemish painter's light? Well, I was born in Flanders, it must be in my blood? LOL.
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)
