Is it possible to pickle loads

Podgruzdki (they are also called dry milk mushrooms or crackers) have a cap up to 20 cm in diameter, grow in large groups and, if a family was found, there are always a lot of them. They belong to conditionally edible mushrooms of the 2nd category, because they taste a little bitter. Therefore, they can be eaten only after culinary processing: pickling or salting. Processed mushrooms completely lose their bitterness and have excellent taste.

How to properly pickle podgruzdki for the winter

Only mushroom caps are used for food, the leg is usually thrown away, since it is small, no more than 5 cm, in adult mushrooms it is hollow. It is not required to remove the skin from the cap, it is tender and soft and, unlike real milk mushrooms, is not sticky at all.

Preliminary preparation before marinating:

  1. Mushrooms need to be soaked for several hours (no more than 4-5) in slightly acidified and salted water. This will help eliminate the unpleasant bitter taste and facilitate further cleaning. However, if the mushrooms are young, you don't need to do this, the bitterness will go away during the cooking process before pickling. In addition, some people value podgruzdki precisely because of their slightly specific flavor.
  2. Loads often hide under fallen leaves and in the upper layers of the soil, so a lot of forest debris always remains on their cap. The shape of the cap also contributes to this: it is slightly depressed in the center in young specimens, and with age it takes the form of a funnel. Soil particles are always collected in this depression, so the mushrooms must be thoroughly cleaned with a small brush.
  3. Then the loadings should be washed under the tap to remove the remaining grains of sand. There are often darkened, yellowish areas on the cap - they need to be scrubbed with a small knife or toothbrush. If the contaminated areas are large, just cut and discard, then cut the caps into pieces and boil for a quarter of an hour.
