Useful properties and uses of raincoat mushrooms
Botanical characteristics of raincoat mushrooms
Raincoat mushrooms are edible mushrooms of an oval or round shape, white, with closed fruit bodies. The size of fruit bodies can reach from 1.5 to 24 cm. Fruits are formed from May to November, in bundles or groups. Raincoats feed on rotting organic debris. They reproduce by dusty spores that form in the fall. These mushrooms are found in many regions of the European part of Russia and not only. They grow in forests, meadows, settle on various soils and even on rotten wood.
Useful properties of raincoats
In a number of Western European countries, raincoat mushrooms are considered a delicacy, they are even equated with champignons. Fruit bodies contain leucine, tyrosine, lipoids and enzymes. The calvic acid present in the fungus helps the human body get rid of various pathogenic bacteria.

Before drying, the mushrooms should be lightly boiled, as they can crumble into dust. For storage, it is better to choose young mushrooms and cut them into translucent slices.
