Shiitakes, 2nd flush




Altered the path of our hike tonight to check on the shiitake logs again. Despite the dry conditions we were pleased to find another flush ready for harvest. Stir-fry tonight, soup tomorrow.

Chicken-of-the-Woods update: I was all ready to sample what was a very tender and nice looking specimen (pictured a few entries down). I revisited the stump with knife in hand only to find something had eaten all but a nub of it. I was disappointed, but have resolved to find another before the month is out and the prime season is over.
