Halli ash should be cooked before freezing
Boil the hams before freezing
The Hallimasch (Armillaria mellea) grows massively on stumps between August and November - often even in their own garden. Sometimes referred to as honey mushroom, hedge sponge or hollow bean mushroom tastes only young, so you need to harvest it as long as the hats are still closed. In any case, only the hats are edible, the stems are tough and unlikely. In the raw state, the hamburger is slightly toxic, so you must cook it before any use and the cooking water must be poured away.
Clean the hamburger and cook
Harvest from Hallimasch only the still closed or almost closed hats - they have already unfolded, the mushroom tastes no more. You should also leave the stems behind. At home, then clean the mushrooms as follows:
After boiling, the hamburger can be prepared as desired, dried or even frozen.
Freeze and prepare the hamburger
To freeze, pack the boiled and quickly chilled gammon in portions into freezer bags or tightly sealed plastic cans. At least minus 18 ° C, the mushrooms keep for about a year. If the frozen mushrooms are to be used, do not thaw them, but prepare them like fresh mushrooms - so the frozen mushrooms come directly into hot fat or hot broth. Even a ready-made hamburger dish - for example made of fried onions, bacon cubes, hamburger mushrooms, salt and pepper - can be quickly frozen in a waterbath to freeze. To warm up, just put it in hot fat and fry it. Ready-to-eat hamburger is kept in the freezer for a maximum of three months.
Tips
Some people tolerate Hallimasch bad and get through his pleasure stomach cramps and diarrhea. Often fungi are more digestible, grown on the stumps of conifers.
