Bolete Mushrooms

Posted by Tom Willett Thu, 31 Jul 2008 03:19:00 GMT

While looking in my woods for mushrooms I found several bolete of different varieties.  Unfortunately, the most abundunt mushroom variety is inedible – very bitter and nasty texture.  The first picture is of a yellow bolete – can’t identify it for sure probably Boletus ornatipes.  It is nasty.  The second is of a two-color bolete – very tasty.  I also found a frost bolete – it can cause gastro-intestinal distress.  It looks much like the two-color bolete except it turns purple immediatly when cut.  I didn’t get a picture of it.
