The name of the russula mushroom genus Russula is translated from Latin as `reddish`, the genus includes more than sixty species of various colors - from red, brown, green to yellow and white. Mushrooms are elegant and undemanding - they grow on various soils in dry and damp cold weather. They have brittle white flesh and light blades. Contrary to the sonorous name, fruit bodies are not eaten raw, and many of them have a bitter taste. Young russula are collected together with their legs and carefully placed in baskets on a layer of leaves or moss - fragile mushrooms are difficult to bring home whole. They are suitable for preparing various second courses and homemade pickles.
