COMMON EDIBLE MUSHROOMS<br />
As with morels, the general shape of the shaggymane is so<br />
characteristic (see Plate iB) that if you have seen a good illustration<br />
of it you cannot fail to recognize it on sight. Normally shaggymanes<br />
grow in groups of a few to several dozen on lawns, along<br />
boulevards, in grassy parks and fields in town and country from<br />
spring until fall, and they often come up in the same place year<br />
after year. If the lower edge of the cap has begun to turn black it<br />
should be cut away before cooking. Shaggymanes cannot be kept<br />
for more than a few hours, unfortunately, even in a refrigerator,<br />
because they continue to ripen and are transformed rather rapidly<br />
into a black liquid.<br />
