    Pioppino mushrooms, also known as black poplar mushrooms, are a type of edible fungi that are popular in Italian and Asian cuisines. Here are some specifications of Pioppino mushrooms:

    Scientific name:
    Agrocybe aegerita

    Appearance:
    Pioppino mushrooms have a firm, velvety texture with a brown to dark brown cap that can range from 2 to 8 cm in diameter. The cap is often convex or flat and can be slightly curled at the edges. The stem is very thickand we have seen meaty 8-9" monsters! Definitely an entertaining mushroom to cultivate!

    Taste:
    Pioppino mushrooms have a mild, nutty flavor with a slight earthy taste. They are often described as having a meaty texture and are popular in dishes where a hearty, umami flavor is desired.

    Nutrition:
    Pioppino mushrooms are low in calories and high in fiber, protein, and vitamins B and D. They also contain antioxidants and minerals such as copper, potassium, and selenium.

    Cooking:
    Pioppino mushrooms are versatile and can be cooked in a variety of ways, including sautéing, roasting, grilling, and stir-frying. They pair well with a range of ingredients, including meats, seafood, vegetables, and pasta. When cooking, it's best to avoid overcooking, as they can become tough and rubbery.


    *This mushroom is easily mistaken for magic mushrooms or psilocybe cubensis. However, it contains no psychoactive components*
