Dunka mushrooms (svinushki): Photos and descriptions, how to cook, is it possible to eat + Video reviews from mushroom pickers


Svinushki (svinukhi, dunki) do not belong to the category of ordinary mushrooms, since it is “conditionally edible”, and some species are completely poisonous.
If you prepare it correctly, the danger of poisoning is eliminated, because where it grows, it has been used for a long time, along with other edible mushrooms. Proper pre-cooking allows you to rid the mushroom of harmful substances, after which you can use it for cooking. Most often it is subsequently fried.

Below are accessible, tasty and simple recipes for preparing this mushroom. You will also learn how to properly process, cook or fry pigs and the nuances of cooking in the oven, on the stove, or in a slow cooker.

Features of the view

The mushroom belongs to the Svinushkov family and has several popular names: solokha, dunka, svinukha, black milk mushroom. They got their name from the appearance of dark spots on the surface after touching, which look like dirt on a pig.

The species that is conditionally edible and is eaten is the fat pig. The external data of the mushroom are as follows:

  1. The cap is concave towards the center and curled at the edges, its diameter is up to 17 cm, the color range is from brown to gray-brown.
  2. The leg is up to 10 cm high and is similar in color to the cap, of medium density and without additional circles on it. Cylindrical in shape, tapering towards the bottom, diameter up to 1.5 cm.


The habitat of pigs is quite wide - these are coniferous and deciduous forests, shrubs, ravines and swamps of Eastern, Central and Southern Europe, as well as almost the entire territory of Russia, although they are not common. Fat pigs prefer shady areas. The growth period of pigs begins in the spring and continues until frost, which is partly why they are popular.

The mushroom cap can have different sizes, it all depends on the age and place of growth. The largest specimens reach 15 centimeters. Young mushrooms have a convex cap, slightly curved at the edges. The older the mushroom, the lower the central part becomes. Over time, the cap takes on the appearance of a funnel, tightening towards the base. The fruit margins can also be funnel-shaped, but sometimes they are simply drooping, ribbed, or wavy. The color of young mushrooms is usually olive or olive-brown. Over time, they become increasingly gray, acquiring a rusty or grayish-brown color. The surface can be wet, damp, dry, sticky, glossy - it all depends on the weather and conditions of the place where the mushroom grows.

Rules for cooking pig mushrooms

Adherents of eating pigs know how to cook them properly and consider heat treatment a good way to get rid of toxins in the fruiting bodies. Before cooking mushrooms, you should prepare them according to the following scheme:

    Remove debris and dirt, wash thoroughly under running water and soak in water with added salt for at least 5 hours.


Preparing for cooking

  • After this time, drain the water and repeat the same procedure twice more.
  • After finishing the third soaking, strain the mushrooms through a sieve and only then will they be ready for cooking.
  • For a housewife who has time and is ready to devote it to preparing pigs for consumption, there is nothing difficult in processing such a mushroom. For every kilogram of fruiting bodies you will need to add a liter of water and a teaspoon of salt.

    Total cooking time

    In order to cook dunki, you will need a total of 1 hour and 15 minutes of time, but the process must occur in several stages:

  1. After the pigs are prepared and filled with salted water, you need to bring them to a boil and cook for 5 minutes. It is better to cover them with a lid while boiling.
  2. Then the brine is drained and the mushrooms are re-filled with a solution of water and salt, brought to a boil and boiled for half an hour a second time.


The process of cooking pigs

  • The same procedure is repeated a third time, draining the brine and adding new water, but the boiling time must take 40 minutes for the pigs to be ready.
  • The last stage of cooking mushrooms is to strain the broth through a sieve, after which they can be used in cooking.
  • Before frying

    In order to fry dunki, you should follow the preliminary preparation technology before adding the mushrooms to the frying pan. Required steps:

  • cleaning from debris and dirt;
  • cutting off darkened areas of pulp;
  • soaking in cold water for 4-6 hours;
  • Thorough rinsing after soaking;
  • division into smaller parts of large fruiting bodies;
  • cook over low heat with salt and allspice for 35 minutes;
  • draining the broth after initial boiling;
  • cooling mushrooms in a colander before frying.

  • Fried pigs

    You need to fry pigs that are slightly dry after cooking. The process of frying in vegetable oil until cooked takes 10-15 minutes, at the end you can add spices to taste.

    For preparation for the winter and before freezing

    Pigs can also be prepared for the winter and there are several options for storing them in the winter. There are many recipes for pickling this type of mushroom:

    • in vegetable oil;
    • in prepared brine;
    • with carrots and cinnamon;
    • aromatic caviar from pigs;
    • cold pickling under pressure.

    Preliminary heat treatment in the form of cooking is mandatory before any type of workpiece.

    You can also put the dunki in the freezer until needed, but before freezing they must be soaked and boiled according to the standard procedure. It is important to note that it is safe to store them frozen for about six months, after which you should not eat the product. To prepare dishes from this type of harvested mushrooms, you must first defrost them and remove the resulting liquid.

    Reviews from the network

    Source:
    To eat or not to eat thin pork is a long discussion that is periodically raised on mushroom forums. Briefly, the theses are as follows: 1. Pork has been eaten for centuries and not bothered. I, too, ate it throughout my childhood, and my parents ate it, and their parents too. It was almost the main mushroom. 2. Someone (who is unknown) at the end of the last century showed that the pig contains certain antigens that cause the formation of antibodies in the body, and derived from this the theory that the pig is poisonous, and fatal. Since then, by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, the pig was converted into poisonous mushrooms. 3. People who know about this (item 2) basically stopped eating pork, guided by the principle “who knows, maybe it’s true.” Me included. That is why there are so many more pigs in the forests. 4. Many considered the ruling on the toxicity of the pig to be excessively far-fetched and continue to eat it, guided by the fact that before everyone always ate it and had no problems. 5. Whether to eat pork or not is everyone’s personal choice. For example, it’s psychologically safer for me not to eat it. And in general, mushrooms interest me more from a scientific point of view than from a gastronomic one, so I don’t suffer from this omission at all.

    Should you boil mushrooms before frying or not?

    A novice housewife will definitely face this question. And many decide that it is better to play it safe than to worry about the safety of their products. To feel confident, of course, it is better to know for sure which mushrooms need additional heat treatment and which do not. Let's take a closer look at the rules.

    Does not require pre-boiling

    Edible and conditionally edible mushrooms are prepared differently. Edible mushrooms can be fried immediately. These include:

    • white;
    • boletus;
    • flywheels;
    • boletus;
    • boletus;
    • chanterelles;
    • saffron milk caps;
    • umbrellas;
    • Champignon;
    • hedgehogs;
    • rows;
    • oyster mushrooms;
    • Russula;
    • honey mushrooms

    Fried mushrooms

    Naturally, additional heat treatment of edible mushrooms will not harm the human body. But their nutritional value decreases, the specific mushroom aroma weakens and the taste deteriorates. And some mushrooms become slippery even after boiling for a short time.

    Must be boiled

    But conditionally edible mushrooms must be boiled before frying. This helps reduce toxicity to a safe level and eliminate the acrid taste: the toxic substances of such a mushroom dissolve in water when heated, we pour it out, and the mushrooms themselves become edible. Be sure to boil:

    • ordinary lines;
    • pink waves;
    • brittle and stinging russula;
    • milk mushrooms are black and yellow.

    Because of the bitter taste, all those mushrooms that have a burning milky juice are soaked and boiled:

    • camphor, alder and sweetish laticifers;
    • bitters;
    • violins;
    • earrings;
    • white loading pads;
    • some types of russula, pigs and talkers;
    • moths;
    • some other mushrooms.

    When cooked, the bitterness transfers to the water, and the taste of the mushrooms improves significantly. Many summer residents explain the need for preliminary boiling by the fact that this will additionally clean the mushrooms from environmental pollution.

    Some mushrooms need to be boiled first

    Be that as it may, you need to rely both on theoretical data about the group affiliation of mushrooms, and on local conditions and traditions. It’s good if knowledge about mushrooms is passed on from generation to generation. In such families, “mushroom” troubles almost never happen.

    Should I eat mycelium from dunki?

    No. Who told you that dunka is an edible mushroom? Dunka mushrooms are poisonous inedible mushrooms. Although until recently they were considered semi-poisonous. Literally 5 years ago, Wikipedia claimed that they can be eaten. But that's not true.

    Many people are now looking on the Internet for articles on how to cook dunka mushrooms or how to pickle dunka mushrooms. But this makes no sense, since mushrooms are strictly prohibited for consumption.

    On a note! If you eat dunka, you may die. That's how poisonous they are. Dunki contain toxins that do not disappear even after intensive heat treatment. Do not under any circumstances eat these mushrooms.

    Fried mushrooms with pre-boiling

    Since many housewives still boil all mushrooms without exception before frying, we will pay special attention to this method. Let's look at the process step by step.

    Step One: Cleaning

    Mushrooms brought from the forest should be soaked in cold salt water for 1.5-2 hours, then rinsed and peeled.

    Tip: the stems of boletus and honey mushrooms turn out to be harsh when fried, so it is better to cut them off and dry them - in winter, when ground, they are perfect for preparing mushroom sauces and soups.

    Cleaning mushrooms

    Step two: first boiling

    Pour cold water over the mushrooms, bring to a boil and simmer over low heat for 15 minutes, skimming off the foam that formed during boiling. After a quarter of an hour, drain the mushrooms in a colander and rinse with water.

    Tip: when cooking porcini mushrooms, you can add a small amount of citric acid to the water (about 3 g per 1 liter of water) to prevent them from darkening.

    Boiling mushrooms

    Step three: second boiling

    Pour clean water over the mushrooms again, bring to a boil and simmer again over low heat for 10-15 minutes. After cooking, drain the water and rinse the mushrooms again.

    After cooking, mushrooms must be washed

    Step four: frying mushrooms

    When the water drains from the mushrooms after washing, they need to be cut into pieces of the intended size, then put in a dry frying pan (without adding oil!) and kept over low heat, stirring until the liquid evaporates. Then it’s time to add vegetable oil, animal fat or butter (preferably ghee). Fry the mushrooms in oil for 25-30 minutes, remembering to stir. A few minutes before the end of frying, add salt to taste.

    Frying mushrooms

    Step five: placing fried mushrooms in jars

    Transfer the mushrooms directly from the frying pan into dry, hot, sterilized jars. In each of them there should be 1-1.5 cm of free space above the mushrooms for oil (fat). It is best to fill it with the oil in which the mushrooms were fried, but if this oil is not enough, you need to add new oil to the pan, heat it and add it to the jars while boiling.

    Advice: if you prefer animal fat for preparations, its layer on top of the jar will need to be salted directly while it is hot.

    Step six: sterilization

    Roll up the filled jars and sterilize (completely submerged in salt water) for 60 minutes. Then turn over onto the lids, wrap thoroughly and leave to cool for 2 days.

    Tip: if the mushrooms are stored in the refrigerator, they do not need to be sterilized and stored under nylon covers.

    Other name

    The most common name is svinushka, but you can also hear variations like pig or svinukha. In some territories they are known as solopens or solokhs. Another name that is common among the population is duni, dunki or cowsheds. One way or another, the Latin name of the mushroom Paxillus involutus is translated as thin pig.

    Did you know?
    Mushrooms have their own kingdom.
    For a long time, scientists could not determine whether mushrooms belonged to plants or animals. The fact is that in terms of the composition of proteins they are closer to animals, but in terms of the amount of carbohydrates and other minerals are
    like plants, which is why they were separated into their own separate kingdom.

    Fried mushrooms without boiling

    Experienced mushroom pickers, knowing well the properties of the mushrooms that “caught” in their baskets, believe that boiling definitely edible mushrooms - porcini, chanterelles, champignons, moss mushrooms or boletus - only spoils their taste. Therefore, they immediately throw them into the frying pan.

    White mushrooms, chanterelles, champignons, mushrooms or butter mushrooms do not need to be boiled

    Let us now look at this, in essence, quite short-term procurement process:

    • Peel, rinse and drain the mushrooms brought from the forest in a colander to drain;
    • cut all the mushrooms into slices;
    • Pour vegetable oil (or a mixture of fats) into a deep frying pan, heat well and add mushrooms to the hot oil;
    • With the lid closed, fry them over low heat for about an hour, keeping an eye on them and stirring. During this time they will stew in their own juice;
    • then remove the lid and keep the frying pan on the fire until all the mushroom juice has evaporated and the oil becomes clear;
    • place the mushrooms directly from the frying pan into dry hot jars , leaving 10-12 mm on top for oil;
    • top up with boiling oil from the frying pan;

    Where and when to collect dunki

    You can go out in search of pigs from the end of spring and collect them before the temperature drops. Since this species loves damp and shady places, colonies of fungi are found under trees (oak, birch, coniferous varieties), shrubs, on mosses, in forests, and sometimes on trunks. Dunki are rarely found alone, so even from one clearing you can leave with a full basket of harvest.

    Experienced mushroom pickers advise cutting off young specimens, since at this time they have elasticity. A distinctive feature of young mushrooms is their small size and slightly shaggy cap. The inside of old dunikas is loose.

    The negative properties of dunekas include significant absorption of chemicals, radioisotopes and heavy metals from neighboring fields and nearby roads. Due to this feature, it is prohibited to collect dunki growing near industrial enterprises and highways.

    How to properly fry pigs

    There are many different recipes for frying them. One of the easiest ways is to cook pig mushrooms in sour cream. It turns out very tasty. Mushrooms and sour cream are always a good combination of products.

    • pigs - 1 kg;
    • sour cream - 4 tbsp. spoons;
    • one onion;
    • sunflower oil;
    • two cloves of garlic;
    • salt to taste.

    Step-by-step recommendations on how to fry pork mushrooms:

    1. First, sauté the onion in oil until golden brown.

    2. Next, ready-boiled pork and salt are added, and all this is fried over low heat.

    3. Then you need to add garlic and sour cream and simmer for 8 minutes.

    The dish should be allowed to brew and soak. And after 20 minutes it can be eaten.

    Storing fried mushrooms

    Fried mushrooms are stored in refrigerators, basements or cellars. Under plastic lids they remain suitable for 4-6 months, and rolled up with metal lids they can be stored longer.

    Since long-term storage of mushrooms under lids may pose a threat of botulism infection, it is vitally important to take all measures to eliminate this possibility. You can read in detail how to do this in the article Pickling mushrooms for the winter.

    Fried mushrooms can also be stored in the freezer. To do this, fried, cooled mushrooms are packaged in plastic containers or plastic bags, excess air is squeezed out of the bags and placed in the freezer. When frozen, such mushrooms will be stored longer, and there will be no risk of contracting botulism.

    Why can I die if I eat dunka mushroom?

    Because these mushrooms contain lectin. And this is a very dangerous toxin that is contained in dunka mushrooms. The action of the lectin is aimed at red blood cells, which are responsible for the supply of oxygen to the cells. This toxin causes red blood cells to decompose. Once red blood cells begin to decompose, the supply of oxygen to the cells is reduced.

    Because of this, hemolytic anemia occurs. Then nephropathy begins, then jaundice, then renal failure. And this is only if the dose is not very large. If you have urolithiasis or, for example, a tendency to some kind of allergy, even small doses of this toxin are strictly prohibited.

    But that's not all. Dunki contain an extremely dangerous alkaloid of a specific type. This is muscarine. This alkaloid is also found in red and white fly agarics. If you eat large amounts of muscarine, you will experience vomiting and other signs of poisoning (such as diarrhea and abdominal pain), a decrease in heart rate (pulse will slow down), problems with vision (it will simply worsen sharply), and breathing problems are observed (pulmonary edema is possible). Among other things, this alkaloid has a significant effect on the brain and leads to drug addiction.

    On a note! Some citizens practice drinking alcohol with poisonous mushrooms, for example, dunki, which contain the alkaloid muscarine, in order to cause hallucinations. Do not do this under any circumstances. In addition to the fact that you will experience one of the most unpleasant conditions, as well as a sharp deterioration in your health and general condition of the body, you can also die.

    Among other things, if you eat dunka mushrooms, you will not immediately realize that you have been poisoned. As is the case with other poisonous mushrooms, for example, with toadstool. Because in Dunka the effect of the toxin is not so pronounced. You will realize that you are poisoned after about a week (well, it depends on how much you ate, and also on the age of the mushrooms).

    If you still want to try dunka, we have another surprise for you. Dunka mushrooms accumulate radioactive isotopes, which have a destructive effect on all internal organs and cells, cause cancer and lead to death.

    Dunki are very dangerous mushrooms. We strongly do not recommend eating them. When picking mushrooms, be careful and always examine the mushroom for toxicity before putting it in the basket.

    Useful tips from summer residents

    Signs of poisoning and first aid

    The problem is that it is very difficult to determine poisoning. But there are still some signs that not everything is in order with the body and, perhaps, the mushroom was poisonous:

    • in small quantities and with prolonged use, the toxin causes a reaction resembling an intestinal infection. At the same time, the body can very rarely cope with it and suppress the effect of the poison, so the condition lasts for quite a long time;
    • malaise for a long period;
    • if a lot of mushrooms have been eaten, the reaction occurs within 2-4 hours and is highly intense;
    • vomiting, diarrhea, increased peristalsis are the most obvious signs of poisoning;
    • the appearance of bruises and bleeding, pallor;
    • blood tests reveal a change in the number of red blood cells, an increase in bilirubin is observed;
    • jaundice begins to develop;
    • the pupils narrow, vision is impaired;
    • a person may experience shortness of breath, lacking air;
    • heart rhythm is disrupted.

    Sometimes, if the poisoning was minimal, decreased immunity, drowsiness, malaise, vomiting and diarrhea continue for a long time, but go away on their own. Sometimes a person may not even know what caused this condition.

    In particularly difficult cases, diagnostics in a hospital cannot be avoided. It is necessary to take blood tests. In cases of jaundice or renal failure, hospitalization is required.

    Did you know?
    Mushrooms existed on our planet more than 400 million years ago, which has been scientifically proven. Therefore, mushrooms are even older than dinosaurs and the oldest inhabitants of the Earth, along with ferns.

    Video: first aid for mushroom poisoning

    First aid, which must be provided to a person if there are signs of mushroom poisoning, is as follows:

    1. Induce vomiting. This will help clear your stomach of large pieces of mushrooms. This can be done with salt diluted in water or mustard powder. You need to drink a lot of water, this also causes vomiting.
