Is it Birch Bolete season in Midtjylland right now?
Mushroom season in Midtjylland, Denmark is looking good right now, with birch bolete sitting at 54% today. The typical season runs June to October, and we’re in October now
It fruits after warm summer or autumn rain, typically when daytime temperatures sit around 12 to 20 C and the ground stays damp. A good soaking followed by mild, humid days a week or so later usually brings them up.
The flesh of the cap often stays whitish or barely changes colour when cut, which helps separate it from some other scaber stalks that stain pink, grey or black.
Grows in mycorrhizal association with birch only, so look for it under birch trees on heaths, in mixed woodland, parks and on grassy verges. It often appears in damp, mossy ground.
Edible and mild in flavour but the flesh turns soft and slightly slimy when cooked, so it is best used young and firm. It works in mixed mushroom dishes, soups and dried for stock rather than as a fried mushroom on its own.
Pick young, firm specimens because older ones quickly become spongy, waterlogged and maggot-ridden. Confirm the birch association, the brownish cap, the white pores that bruise and the scaly stem, and slice each one to check the flesh before adding it to your basket.
Easily told from other Leccinum such as the orange birch bolete by its dull brown cap. It has no deadly lookalikes, but as a bolete only ever pick firm specimens, since old soft ones cause stomach upsets, and avoid any bolete with red or orange pores and blue-staining flesh.
