Mushrooms play a leading role in this season's dishes. Pore fungus, agaric, honey and field mushrooms are all part of this family. Walking through the woods to pick mushrooms is a wonderful way of spending a day, so long as you are sensible enough to ask the opinion of an expert and thus avoid eating inedible, or even poisonous mushrooms.
