Aaron Hilliard of the Kitsap Mycological Society shows us the Porcini Mushroom, Boletus Edulis. How and where they grow, commercial harvesting, cleaning and cooking. Some people claim these are the best mushrooms in the world, and we have to agree. There is something so attractive and magical about these mushrooms. They sell for big money in the market and can be difficult and dangerous to get. Please join us and subscribe to learn all about this mushroom!

Found 10lbs up at 3200ft. You say elevation doesn't matter but I've only found em high up 3k+ or on the coast never in between.
Your videos are good luck. Went out for chanterelles today in northern California, found an awesome porcini. Tis the season!
Aaron,your videos are so inspiring.The porcinis,yum-o!
Hen of the woods are in season at NW Pennsylvania.
Happy foraging ✌️
Still hoping to find some of these this fall 🤞
Awesome video! We had the biggest Porcini spawn in terms of both amount and mushroom size that I've ever seen here on Lake Superior. Banger year!
Looks bussin 👍🏼
First video I've seen, 98% sure he's worked in a kitchen before
Wow…wish I could find some of those❤
Do any grow in the Midwest, indiana,?
Awesome meal
Loved your presentation. Professional job well done.
I typically don't subscribe to others, but this one is so well done that I just had to.
Here in Wyoming and Utah we also get Boletus edulis and also Boletus borrowsii.
Both are my favorite wild species. I'll have to try your recipe. I love them grilled on the BBQ basted with olive oil, garlic, basal, oregano, and yes, mint.
Keep up the good work.
Are any of the mushrooms you find also in other locations in the US? I live in the mountains of VA.
Much Love!
Oh man, this is year 1 of foraging for me and I cannot wait to get my hands on a porcini to try it ! They look so fun !!
Great video as always!
Nice! Definitely on my list. Just found a couple Maitake’s last weekend
What's your opinion on slimy jacks? We have a ton of them here in Montana. Squirrels seem to like them. look really similar to the king boletes.
Yet another awesome video! 🤤 would love to find porcini mushrooms and make that! 😋 Missed your puppers though!!
Hey there! I’m was a chef turned company owner. Would you like to hunt mushrooms here on orcas island and we could do a cooking video? I just did some crab brittle gill mac and cheese with chicken and thought it might be fun to team up
Found a good patch of shrimp russalas this weekend, would it be fair to say theres a good chance of finding lobsters in that same area? My underatanding is they essentially are russalas
A bad day mushroom hunting or fishing is time well spent anyway! We found a non-edible bolete on Saturday – very exciting, first one ever. Going for chanterelles next weekend. Fun!
Yeah Brah! So effin' hungry now. Didn't find 'em locally here this year…so bummin.
What are your thoughts on Panellus serotinus and edibility? Seems to be some confusion. Thx
I have some pictures of some mushrooms I've been unable to identify and I would love someone who knows what they're talking about to take a look at them.
Wow that looks incredible. The homemade sauce is where its at. Loved this video and can't wait to find some Porcinis.
Seems like all these edible mushrooms only grow in the Pacific Northwest. Though never see mushrooms in my area, since I live in a metro with no forests near by for hundreds of miles
I like these catch & cook videos. Some reactions to the "lesser edibles" as opposed to choice edibles would be entertaining. I've yet to see a catch & cook video for HIdeous Gomphidius, for example.
Can you find porchini in banner? I want to make some for my family. Loving the videos!! ❤
Great video Aaron! Thanks so much!
Where is this Mushroom buyer located? I might have something to sell when i go foraging this weekend.
Is porcini better than morels? I had morel but not porcini so I'm curious
Great video. DO you have one book on PNW Mushrooms you would recommend that I get?
Awesome Dude!!
Would they grow in west Kootenays, Castlegar, BC area?
That made me hungry.
