Mushrooms are a highly nutritious food that, due to their unique structure and properties, has been relegated by biologists to a kingdom separate from plants and animals. Since ancient times, people have been eating them, and therefore they have long learned to distinguish edible species and collect them so as not to be left without a harvest next year.
The most popular are red chanterelles and small mushrooms, milk mushrooms and oyster mushrooms. However, all of them are found with difficulty after a long search, and under adverse conditions they can easily die. While russula is a mushroom unpretentious to the weather, it survives both in drought and under torrential downpours, and therefore is the most fruitful. Every year, in case of few rains, it is this species that saves mushroom pickers. Mushrooms got their name, most likely, because russula is a mushroom that cooks incredibly quickly, and therefore becomes usable even when the rest of its brethren are still raw. In nature, there are about 150 varieties of them, and outwardly they can be described with one proverb: “Thirty-five sisters, and all from differentmothers. This characteristic suits russula as well, as their cap color can vary from purple to gray and even yellow, and it can fade when exposed to sunlight or heat treatment.

Recipes, on the other hand, say otherwise, since there are a huge number of ways to prepare them: they can be boiled, fried and pickled, as well as used as a filling in pies and tartlets, and soups and salads can be prepared based on them. So, for example, their combination with beans, meat and sour cream, buckwheat and potatoes is very tasty. Russula is an unpretentious mushroom in terms of cooking.

Any soup will be very rich if you add russula mushrooms to it. The preparation of such a dish is based on beef bone broth, to which onions, bell peppers and carrots are first added, and then boiled beans. Mushrooms are put in when the beans are half cooked, and boiled until they soften. This dish is served with sour cream and fresh bread. Russula is a mushroom that can beuse in any filling of the pie, while not spoiling the taste at all. So, russula can be added to tartlets, combined with boiled and finely chopped egg yolks, mayonnaise and sprinkled with a little s alt.
