But it's probably as they are then at their freshest. One site suggests they are easier to see in the early light, while another says 'only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the mid day sun' Jenny :~) |

Why do people collect mushrooms early in the morning? I don't, necessarily. In fact, collecting them early can be a bad idea - if there has been a heavy dew, they'll be wet, which results in them tending to go off very quickly and/or not cook very well. Generally though, mushrooms first emerge overnight and, as has been mentioned, if you aren't first, you won't get any. Although, several varieties - parasol, cep - can take several days to mature. If you're sure nobody else is going to grab them, it is usually best to wait. -- Larry Stoter |

So that's why I can never find any, but I'm too lazy to get up early anyway. Alan -- Reply to alan(at)windsor-berks(dot)freeserve(dot)co(dot)uk |

The message ]
from Chris ] contains these words: Why do people collect mushrooms early in the morning? -- Chris Mushrooms grow fast; they come up overnight and in the morning are at the unopened button stage. They are clean, white, fresh, need no peeling, and taste and cook better (imho). The older, open ones tend to shrink and bleed juice more in the frying pan; or if you're making soup, they make it unattractively dark. If you pick the very big open ones, the top has a skin that needs to be peeled off, the gills are very dark, the texture is a bit rubbery and the flavour isn't as good. Janet |
