Puffball, commonly known as cow dung mushroom or water chestnut bun. Belongs to the basidiomycete family Mabolidae. It is white in color when young, spherical like a mushroom, but larger, delicious and edible, and as tender as tofu. When old, it becomes brown and soft, with dust flying out when playing, and the inside is like a sponge. I am from Lincang, Yunnan, and this place in our area is called Mapipao. When wild fungi appear in large numbers, Mapipao also appears, but not many appear, and it is not easy to find them. You need to be able to cook wild mushrooms before you can eat them. If you don’t know how to cook them, they can easily lead to poisoning. This year, a colleague got poisoned after eating them. However, I couldn’t resist the temptation and planned to buy porcini mushrooms for frying. However, I unexpectedly found the stuffed mushrooms that I hadn’t eaten in many years, so I decided to buy them for frying! It sells for 40 yuan per kilogram in Kunming. I didn’t dare to buy more, so I bought one for two people.
