Field Guide to Edible Mushrooms of Britain and Europe by Peter Jordan

Field Guide to Edible Mushrooms of Britain and Europe by Peter Jordan

The fields, woods and gardens of Britain and Europe are home to a wide range of edible mushrooms, a number of which are not simply good but truly excellent to eat. Now available for the first time in paperback, this is a practical, user-friendly guide to collecting edible wild fungi species across Britain and Europe. Covering over 70 edible mushroom and truffle species, along with over 50 poisonous species to avoid, the entries provide detailed information on size, appearance, occurrence and habitat, backed up with specially commissioned colour photography, shot in situ and in natural light. With tips on when and where to hunt for mushrooms, invaluable advice on preserving, storing and cooking them and advice on environmentally friendly collecting, this book provides all the information a mushroom forager could need.

Peter Jordan sadly passed away in 2008. He was the author of the much reprinted The Ultimate Mushroom Book by Lorenz (which is now available as Peter Jordan's Wild Mushroom Bible) and Peter Jordan's Mushroom Foray Guide. For many years, he and his wife Valerie ran the Lord Nelson public house in Burnham Market, Norfolk, which was known throughout the UK for its exotic wild mushroom dishes. Peter was also a regular on Radio Norfolk, and he appeared on television with chefs Gary Rhodes, Brian Turner and Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall.
