Which mushrooms can you pick and eat? Beginners are well advised to concentrate on boletes first, as there are no deadly poisonous species among them. The only poisonous one, the Satan‘s bolete, is fairly easy to distinguish from the other edible species. Boletes are mushrooms whose fruiting bodies have a stem and a cap. There are no lamellae on the underside of the cap, but a spongy tubular layer. Very popular edible boletes are red caps, porcini and bay boletes.

When raw, the witch’s bolete is inedible. When cooked, however, it is delicious and similar in consistency to porcini mushrooms. The devil‘s bolete, on the other hand, is always slightly poisonous and causes unpleasant diarrhea. It can be distinguished from the witch’s bolete by its light gray to whitish cap.
