The Charcoal Burner: The mushroom that looks like burnt wood but tastes like hazelnuts 🔥🍄
Russula cyanoxantha — dark grey-to-black cap that looks charred, but the flesh stays firm and nutty.
One of the most common and safest edible Russulas. Cooks beautifully and has a mild, sweet hazelnut flavour.
Pro tip: The cap skin peels easily — a key ID sign.
