Description:
Cauliflower Mushrooms are considered a wood mushroom, and can grow to fifty pounds or more apiece. They are considered one of the gems of the mushroom family with a texture similar to jelly fungi but not quite as firm. They need to be cooked for at least an hour in chicken broth to become tender and then sliced for use. All this has to be done after you have clean them, which can be a real chore, as it is with a number of polypores. The nice thing about these mushrooms is that they stand up very well in stews that need long cooking.
