Giant puffball. An edible mushroom which slices almost like bread. Use only the smaller ones and they should be heavy and firm. If they are light in weight than they have dried up. Always cut them open from top to bottom with a sharp knife to check the interior
Sanguin or bloody milk cap. A mushroom quite similar to the saffron milk cap but less common. It exudes a red milk sang poivré when cut.
Flat lobster. A variety of lobster with a flat tail, shaped somewhat like a slipper, which is the edible part. It makes a noise like a cricket. The Mediterranean slipper lobster is generally used for flavouring soups as it does not carry much meat.
