honey mushroom

[English] plural honey mushrooms

The honey mushroom is a small wild mushroom with a long stalk and tiny head which grows in mountain valleys. They are served as a vegetable, in sauces, with pasta in Italy, or they may be pickled, but they should always be well cooked. (If gathering mushrooms you must be absolutely certain what you have before you eat them as many are very poisonous.)
