A tasty, aromatic and satisfying dish. Milk mushrooms can not only be salted or made into soups. They are no less delicious when fried.
How to choose milk mushrooms
There are several types, however, the most popular is the white milk mushroom. It, like all others, grows in families, but when collecting it there is a chance of “hooking” on a false one. These include the pepper mushroom or violin mushroom. You are unlikely to get poisoned from them, but you will ruin the dish.
When quietly hunting for these delicious mushrooms, it is worth considering a number of points that will help you collect a truly high-quality product:
- In most cases, white milk mushrooms have a light-colored cap, which is hairy around the edges. In adult specimens there is a kind of depression in the middle, which is absent in young mushrooms. Sometimes there are yellowish streaks or dark spots on the cap, which is acceptable.
- Pay attention to the smell of the mushroom. Real milk mushrooms, whether white or black, have a rich aroma. If you smell peppery notes, then you have come across a fake.
- Do not choose mushrooms with long stems, even if they look exactly like the characteristic description. This feature is typical of violinists. You can verify this by running a knife through the pulp - the false mushroom will “make” a squeak.
- Don't pick mushrooms along highways. Also avoid old and slightly dried out specimens. Good quality milk mushrooms have a moist cap, which is why people call it “raw”.
Advice: if you are a newly minted mushroom picker, then study the theory as much as possible before going into the forest. In most cases, they differ little from each other; the species can be judged mainly by its place of growth.
Initially, search the Internet in search of educational videos or articles with photos, and then you will be able to accurately separate one species from another.
Salad with milk mushrooms and rice
Rice adds richness to this dish and also softens the harsh taste of salted mushrooms.
Ingredients:
- salted milk mushrooms – 200 gr.;
- rice (preferably long grain) – 150 gr.;
- chicken eggs – 2 pcs.;
- dill and green onions – 100 gr.;
- mayonnaise – 1 tbsp. l.;
- sour cream – 2 tbsp. l.;
- salt and black pepper.
How to cook:
- Boil the rice in salted water until fluffy.
- Hard boil the eggs, peel and cut into cubes.
- Also cut the mushrooms into cubes.

How to prepare milk mushrooms
These mushrooms are distinguished by milky juice, which gives bitterness. Therefore, before looking for a recipe, in order to avoid spoilage of the dish, it is necessary to keep the product in water. The main question here is how much. Soaking lasts at least two days.
But before proceeding to this stage of product processing, it is necessary to clean the mushrooms. The top layer of the cap is scraped off, if desired, the “tinsel” around the edges is removed and part of the base is cut off with the ground.
When cleaning, you should also not forget that these mushrooms, despite their bitter taste, are still loved by forest animals. Therefore, carefully examine each milk mushroom for the presence of bugs, worms and slugs.
If some time has passed since your arrival from the forest, and the leaves, along with the rest of the debris, have stuck strongly, you can place the mushrooms in water for a while. After such manipulations, the dirt will easily fall behind.
Important: housewives often add a little lemon and salt to the water when soaking milk mushrooms. But following this advice does not exclude regular fluid changes. Even with these absorbents, the product will sour and deteriorate. It is recommended to collect fresh water as often as possible - at least a couple of times a day, and the mushrooms should be washed.
When the raw material is cleaned, it should be sorted by caliber. This will ensure even cooking later on. For the same purposes, you can immediately cut the still raw product into equal segments.
The final stage before cooking fried milk mushrooms is boiling the mushrooms. The average process time is 20 minutes. However, it all depends on the quantity of the batch being processed. Its behavior will tell you about the readiness of the main ingredient - the mushrooms will settle to the bottom.
Tip: skim off the foam on the surface of the broth with a slotted spoon; this must be done even taking into account that it is not recommended to use the broth in the future.
What types of milk mushrooms are there for frying?
- Fresh. The most preferable option, but the most difficult in terms of extraction. Milk mushrooms are rarely found in the supermarket. This means you have to go into the forest, which not every city dweller can afford. If you are lucky enough to get fresh milk mushrooms on your dinner table, that’s great!
- Dried. The most common option in urban environments, because it can be found in stores. In order for the dry mushroom to look like fresh and be ready for frying, it must be soaked in water at room temperature for about 2 hours.
- Salty. Yes, such mushrooms can also be fried. People often pickle milk mushrooms, so many people have a jar in their bins. The taste is a little specific, but many people really like it.
