ヤマドリタケ
Members of the genus "Lactarius", as the name suggests, lactate a milky liquid when wounded and are often scoffed upon by Western literature. The "Lactarius deliciosus" is however regarded as one of the most palatable mushrooms in Slavic culture, comparable to the "Boletus edulis". Also considered as similarly palatable are the species "Lactarius necator" and particularly "Lactarius resimus". Thermal treatment may however be necessary in some cases. The "Lactarius pubescens" has a less appealing, bitter taste.
