British Edible Fungi: How To Distinguish And How To Cook Them is a comprehensive guide to identifying and cooking edible mushrooms found in the United Kingdom. The book was written by Mordecai Cubitt Cooke, a renowned mycologist and illustrator, and was first published in 1891. The book is divided into two main sections: the first provides detailed descriptions and illustrations of various species of mushrooms, including their physical characteristics, habitats, and edibility. The second section offers instructions on how to cook and prepare these mushrooms, with recipes for soups, stews, sauces, and more. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in foraging for mushrooms or learning more about British cuisine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
