#Thailand #ThaiFoood #mushrooms

Ayutthaya, Thailand - Just an hour from Bangkok, we had an opportunity to pick, cook, and eat - giant head-sized golden mushrooms! What I immediately liked, is that they do grow the mushrooms and farm them, but they do it in a very natural way, using organic natural methods, and the mushrooms grown naturally in the soil under the trees next to the river.

Hed Dab Dao (เห็ดตับเต่า) - In Thai the mushrooms literally translate to “turtle liver” mushrooms - but I can assure you there’s no turtle and no liver in this video. We debated why they are called turtle liver mushrooms, and eventually we decided - and don’t hold us accountable to this, it’s just our guess - the mushrooms sort of have a liver texture, and they sort of look like a turtle from the top - so Turtle liver mushrooms. I did some research in English, and I believe that they are some type of King bolete mushrooms.

After harvesting some literal head sized golden mushrooms to eat, we then went to cook them. They made three dishes:

“Koy” mushroom salad (ก้อยเห็ดตับเต่า)
Mushrooms with sweet basil (เห็ดตับเต่าผัดโหระพา)
Curry mushrooms (แกงเห็ดตับเต่า)

In order to cook all the mushroom dishes, he first sliced then boiled the mushrooms for about 5 minutes, then set them in cool water. From there, he made the three different Thai mushrooms dishes.

The mushrooms were the highlight, they have an amazing texture, soft and tender, and just perfectly slimy, almost to the point where they melt in your mouth while being hearty and meaty - or livery - at the same time. It was my first time to try King bolete mushrooms (เห็ดตับเต่า) and I loved them!

Thank you for watching this Thai food video, and hope you’re having a fantastic day!

    Great vid, Mark! I'm a mushroom enthusiast, or an amateur "mycologist," so I thought I'd share a few things! The King bolete mushroom - pronounced BOW-leet - is known by a few names, like Penny Bun, Porcini, or by its scientific name, Boletus edulis. The California king bolete grows in California as the name suggests, for example. It is a pretty fun guy ;) It is what's called a "polypore" mushroom, because there are many many pores beneath the cap. This is different from gilled mushrooms, which have gills that radiate from the stem in the center outwards to the edge of the cap. These pores release the mushroom's spores so that they can travel on the wind and land elsewhere to make more mushrooms! That's why we often use wicker baskets when carrying and moving mushrooms - the spores can fall from the basket as we go, planting more mushrooms just like Johnny Appleseed! So imagine a mushroom is the apple, with the spores being the seeds. The "branches," "trunk," and "roots" of the mushroom are called mycelium, and they grow underground. Neat! A cautionary note for anyone curious - please NEVER eat any wild mushrooms that have not been identified by experts! While there are many varieties of delicious mushrooms out in the world, there are others than can cause you serious problems (including death!). Some perfectly edible mushrooms have impostors that look just like them, but are bad for you. So please, only eat mushrooms that have been identified by experts, such as the wonderful people in the video. Happy hunting! :)

    The guy who cooks looks calm and cool when cooking. Quite good looking!
  • @NoSleepRacing
    The ability to not only eat from the land but eat what's available locally is amazing. It's nearly a lost art in many cultures
  • @nuwebster8339
    I visited Bangkok because of Mark, and I'm coming back on 2021, that includes: Siem Reap, Phuket, Chiang Mai, Hanoi, Danang, Saigon, & Luang Prabang. Thank you Mark for all the vloggs & encouragement.

    Hey Mark, the mushrooms in this video are not King Boletes (Boletus edulis), which have long been prized in western cuisine, but instead appear to be a somewhat related bolete: Phlebopus portentosus. While western cultures have not been able to find a commercially-viable way to cultivate B. edulis, it appears (from what I’ve been reading online) that P. portentosus has been cultivated in China and Southeast Asia for much of the last decade. If so, this is likely a mushroom that we will eventually become more familiar with in the West. Thanks for opening my eyes to a new-to-me bolete!
