Mushroom Joy

Pelle Holmberg, Jens Linder

An indispensable source of inspiration for every mushroom picker!

The phrase ‘the joy of mushrooms’ is the first thing that springs to mind when Pelle Holmberg, committed mushroom expert, and Jens Linder, skilled cook, start talking about mushrooms. Two real connoisseurs in this field – a pair of genuine gourmets in Wellingtons – have written a book together on our best edible mushrooms and how to use them in 50 excellent mushroom dishes.

The Joy of Mushrooms comprises 25 mushroom portraits, including everything from the St George’s mushroom of early summer, through the leccinum genus of high summer to the proud parasol mushroom of autumn and winter’s oyster mushroom.

From this book you can learn which season your favourite mushroom belongs to, how to recognise different edible mushrooms, how to look after the mushrooms you have picked, how to keep them, and the best way to prepare each variety.

The book is illustrated with fantastic pictures of mushrooms, food and nature. So it’s off out into the woods to experience the true joy of mushrooms!
