Wait, these are edible? We found a few a couple weeks ago but didn't know what it was called so we refer to them as the lace-shrooms.

@jennifer@partychickens.net I'm not entirely sure these are the same species of fungi but either way the one on your photo appears too old and dried out and would likely end up being too chewy, leathery in dishes. One telltale sign that you're looking at the right species is if it grows at the base of a pine tree with which the cauliflower mushroom is symbiotic. And it should have a pleasant mushroomy smell. Some other similar fungi smell like old, smelly socks.

@jennifer@partychickens.net @tildalwave@infosec.exchange look up for sparassis crispa and not sparassis brevipes!
