    I just made fried chicken of the woods from locally foraged mushrooms (western NY). I was absolutely shocked how delicious it was. I did not think it would be able to mimic the mouth feel and taste of a piece of breaded and fried chicken breast. I seasoned the flour with a onion seasoning from Trader Joe's, paprika, and some Mushroom & Company seasoning (also from Trader Joe's). Double dipped them in egg and flour and fried till golden brown. Even my girlfriend who hates mushrooms was shocked how much this mimicked fried chicken. Would 10/10 recommend trying to make these!!!

      Not sure where you live now but these mushrooms are very common to find east of the Mississippi from south to north. They like to grow on deciduous trees (oak is one of the best). So while it's common to find them out west too, it's only relegated to diverse woodlands. Much of the west is conifer forests except the PNW which has a bit more biodiversity in trees (though still heavy on the conifer) and you dont want to eat a CotW from a conifer)

    Man you would’ve really loved it with fresh chicken of the woods. That looked pretty rough. I found one here in New York last year that was 120lbs on one tree! I went back last week and got another 50 from it this year. Our favorite is cow (chicken of the woods) nuggets. We are going to have to try this recipe now and see if it’s our new favorite. We have foraged and eaten over 60 different wild mushrooms here. It’s taken years of research and self educating to get to this point but it’s so worth it. For anyone reading this, never pick and consume a wild mushroom you are not 100% positive of its identity! I’m new to your channel but definitely plan on staying. Keep up the good work!

I’ll look up the name of the company and add it to this post if anyone is interested.

    Chicken of the Woods (Laetiporus sulphureus) and Lobster of the Woods (Hypomyces lactifluorum) are extremely hard to cultivate, unlike oysters or shiitakes. They are almost always wild foraged. With that said, they are not hard to find in the wild, depending on your location. Great video. I personally pan sear my CoW's before I bread and fry them just to be sure they are fully cooked and also impart pan flavor. And yes they taste almost exactly like what they are named for.

    CotW is amazing all around. Its beautiful, insanely tasty, and really healthy (when not completely slathered in oil lolz.) Also a great/easy genus for amateur foragers just starting out. Just be careful with clusters growing on conifers esp hemlocks! Always try a small amount to make sure it agrees w/ you first.
    As for the recipe: def double batter! The first pieces of single batter I made shed most of it off. The double batter held up much better. They also bake really well but be sure to use a spray oil on the baking sheet & both sides as you cook as it will be much drier than full on frying.
