Any mushroom picker is pleased to admire a basket of mushrooms filled with important boletuses, sunny mushrooms, scarlet boletuses, and other tasty gifts of nature. But when strange “eggs” that resemble raincoats lie among them, they say that the person is lucky today.

Luck is called ordinary luck. Folk names Phallus impudicus sound like “damn egg”, “shamer”, “upstart”, “devil’s eye”. “Smelly morel”, “flower mushroom”, “witches egg”. Numerous legends are associated with this strange “work of art.” Its unusual medicinal properties have been known since the period of the ancient Romans.

Detailed information about the healing capabilities of Veselka is known from manuscripts of the 17th century. The Dutch botanist Andrian Junius was the first to describe the mushroom in the 16th century. Thanks to new diagnostic capabilities and the level of research technology, it was only in the 20th century that it was possible to determine chemical composition, understand and confirm the unusual healing abilities of the fruit.

What kind of mushroom is this that allows a person to cope with the most difficult diseases that befall him?

Find a mushroom by unpleasant smell, reminiscent of the smell of rotting radishes, carrion. They don’t run away from an unpleasant place, but look around carefully. Usually, magical white eggs are hidden next to the adult mushroom. Their size is comparable to a quail or goose egg. With the remains of mycelium in the form of a thin root, they firmly hold onto the soil.

Mycologists confirm that the fungal egg develops in the thick forest floor for almost three weeks. Its dimensions can reach 150, 200 g. As if a chick is emerging from a shell, a leg and a mushroom cap begins to appear from the white mass. The growth rate of the veselka is up to 5 mm per minute, which made it possible to include it on the page of the Guinness Book. When mature, the cap of the Veselka looks like a bell. Its color can be dark olive, green, brown, white with different shades. A dense spot with a hole forms in the center.

The cap, the stem of the mushroom, is covered with an unpleasant mucus called earth oil. Veselka spores float freely in it. The spore-bearing layer is quickly eaten by numerous insects.

In this case, the color of the cap becomes yellowish, and the structure resembles clearly defined cells. For medicinal applications The mushroom eggs are collected, filled with a gelatinous jelly of earthen oil under a shell called a peridium.

After a week of egg formation, the peridium ruptures and a fungal stalk emerges from it. Its height can be 30 cm, its diameter reaches 4 cm. The height of the cap reaches 5 cm. The spores have a size of about 3 microns. Duration life cycle there is no fast-growing mushroom for more than 3 days. Mushroom pickers often compare the desired fruits to an overripe plum.

Where does it grow in Russia

Veselka is found in mixed, coniferous, deciduous, and forest areas. The mushroom grows solitarily, in groups next to dying trees, near stumps. Most often, up to 20 pieces of fungus in one mycelium are found under hazel, oak, and among spruce thickets. In the southern regions of Russia, the mushroom is almost never found. The growing season depends on weather conditions. Usually it starts in June and continues until October.

The peak of fruiting was registered by specialists in August. Veselka does not tolerate drought in summer or autumn frosts. The development of the mycelium quickly stops. It never forms again over several years in one place. It’s as if it’s specially hiding from human eyes, changing places of growth.

Now there are technologies for growing veselka in home garden beds. A patent for the original technology was received at the beginning of this century by breeder Alexander Kuznetsov.

Kinds

Several types of veselka are found in nature. A person who knows how to look for mushrooms needs to know that mushrooms have different healing properties. For example, Hadrian's merry, which differs in skin color (it has a lilac tint), is even less common. Most often it grows among sand dunes. There is no confirmation of the healing properties of Hadrian's merry. The mushroom mutinus canis and mutinus rhubarb are also found here. They also develop a leg and a pink and red cap from the egg.

Mushrooms connect to the ground through numerous small roots. A real veselka always has one thin root. The healing properties of these mushrooms have not yet been studied. You will be even less lucky to meet a relative of the merry dictyophora (lady with a veil, net-carrier). The exotic mushroom has the same healing qualities as the common mushroom.

Mushroom preparation

The formation and growth of the fungus takes place in top layer fertile soil, rich in leaves, needles, rotted moss. From a small embryo in the form of a round grain, the famous mushroom grows.

There are certain requirements for preparing a funnel. The most valuable part is the egg. But the young leg, having cut off the cap (which has not changed color or structure), must be carefully trimmed and placed in a basket. A tincture is prepared at home and dried. Mushrooms cannot be washed. They are simply wiped with a wet cloth. Before drying, eggs and legs are cut and hung on threads in ventilated rooms without light.

The shelf life of dried mushrooms stored in glass containers is tightly covered with a lid, lasts 2 years. Young fruiting bodies after peeling of the ovoid shell are suitable for use in recipes for preparing salads from fresh veselka.

What does the Veselka mushroom look like and where does it grow?

The growing season of Veselka is June-September, it depends on natural and weather conditions. The fungus does not tolerate drought and frost; in such conditions, the mycelium stops developing. Veselka constantly changes its place of growth, as if hiding from people. It reproduces by spores carried by flies and insects. The mushroom grows in European countries, Ukraine, Belarus, less often in Russian territories- Caucasus, Urals, Siberia, Far East. It is listed in the Red Book as a rare and endangered species. Currently, Veselka is grown at home using special technology.

mushroom egg is a valuable product for both medicinal and culinary purposes

Mushroom egg

Next to the adult mushroom there are white eggs, reminiscent of chicken or goose eggs. The egg reaches up to 7 cm in diameter, has a smooth, leathery shell of a white-cream color. It firmly holds onto the ground with its thin root. Inside the egg there is gelatinous pulp with the smell of radish. The egg develops in the soil for about three weeks, then a leg and a fungal cap emerge from the shell, like a chick, growing at an astronomical speed (up to 5 mm per minute).

Adult mushroom

An adult Veselka resembles a bell and has a dark olive color with various shades. A hole in the form of a spot forms in the center of the cap, through which the fungus releases spores. The surface of the funnel is covered with earthen oil - an unpleasant mucus in which these spores float. The mucus is quickly eaten by insects and the color of the cap becomes yellowish. An adult mushroom exists for no more than three days, then it quickly decomposes and rots, leaving only a wet mark.

Warning: twins

Veselka has similar twin brothers - Mutinus canine and Veselka Hadrian.

However, Mutinus smaller in size, has more dark color shells with a yellow tint, attached to the mycelium by several roots (the Veselka has one).

Veselka Hadriana has eggs with purple streaks, and an adult mushroom has a mesh veil.

This unusual capped gasteromycete mushroom belongs to the order Phallusaceae and the class Basidiomycetes. Veselushka appears first in the form of an egg, from which a stalk then quickly grows, and then a cap. The mushroom is edible, but treatment with its use should be treated with caution.

Fungal phytoncides have a detrimental effect on pathogenic microbes. Veselka earthen oil is used for stomach diseases, in the treatment of arthritis and gout. Preparations from panna can cure stomach ulcers and other gastrointestinal diseases. The mushroom is also taken for external diseases: varicose veins, psoriasis, skin cancer, burns, frostbite. In addition, you can cure hypertension with tincture of Veselka. Infusions from panna are also used for cancerous tumors. Vessels also remove free radicals and toxins and rejuvenate the body.

Morphological description

The unusual Veselka mushroom looks like a chicken egg, and when you cut it you can find a gelatinous, healthy mass with a pungent odor. The young fruiting body reaches a diameter of 6 cm; there is a light mycelial cord at the base. Externally, the panna looks like a raincoat, but at the same time it has a soft texture. The smooth shell of the fungus, the peridium, is cream-colored. During ripening, it breaks into several parts, and a cylindrical fruiting body begins to sprout from the egg. The stem with the cap grows very quickly, sometimes in 10 minutes.

Size fruiting body the sramnik is 2 - 4 cm wide and 12 - 20 cm high. At the top there is a bell-shaped hat that is covered in dark green mucus. On top there is a dense disk with several holes. The spores, as a rule, have a yellowish color, a smooth surface, a size of 5x1.5 microns, and an ellipsoidal-cylindrical shape. Distinctive feature the mature form has an unpleasant putrid smell of carrion.

Where does it grow

The amazing Veselka mushroom is found everywhere, but it is difficult to find. Grows in Siberia, Europe, the Far East, and the Caucasus. Prefers deciduous forests rich in humus. Panna can be a saprophyte or form mycorrhiza with hazel, oak, beech, and shrubs. Spores are well spread by insects. It grows singly or in groups from May to October. The likelihood of finding it increases at the end of June.

(morel smelly)

or gouty morel, immodest phallus

- conditionally edible mushroom

✎ Affiliation and generic characteristics

Common Veselka(lat. Phallus impudicus), scientifically, - immodest phallus, stinking morel, gouty, popularly - scoundrel, upstart, devil's egg, witches' egg, despite the “bizarre” forms, is considered a cap mushroom and belongs to the genus Phallus of the family Phallaceae and the order Phallales, which is part of the group gasteromycete fungi.
The common fungus mushroom is unique in its own way and is perhaps the only mushroom that can simultaneously be an edible, conditionally edible, inedible, and poisonous mushroom!
At its young age, when the mushroom is still in the peridium (shell or “egg”), it is certainly edible. And at the moment when its fruiting body comes out of the shell (egg) and begins its rapid growth, it is conditionally edible. When it has grown and its flesh begins to emit a foul odor (stink), then it is no longer edible. And when it is even slightly overripe, it is poisonous and can cause quite serious gastrointestinal poisoning.
And the common veselka is considered conditionally edible only because in its mature state it emits a very sharp, unpleasant odor (hence the second name - stinking morel).
Many sources contain information that the growth rate of the common fungus is one of the fastest in nature and can reach 5 millimeters per minute, and this figure exceeds the growth rate of bamboo, which is cited everywhere as a textbook example of absolute achievement of growth rate in the plant world.
The name Phallus, in relation to a specific mushroom, was first used by Adrian Junius (or Adrian de Jonge), a Dutch physician and scientist, in 1562.
But in 1729, Pier Antonio Micheli, an Italian botanist and mycologist, “the father of cryptogamy,” published a work in which he noted independent genus Phallus, with two species included in it.
And in 1753, Carl Linnaeus, a Swedish naturalist (botanist, zoologist, mineralogist) and physician, gave these two species binomial (consisting of two words) names:

  • Phallus impudicus (common beetle).

Nowadays, these two species are classified as different sections of mushrooms.

Already in 1801, Christian Hendrik Person, a Dutch botanist and mycologist, who significantly supplemented the Linnaean taxonomy of fungi with his work, introduced the following species into the genus Phallus:

  • Phallus esculentus (edible, tasty);
  • Phallus impudicus (common beetle);
  • Phallus cancellatus;
  • Phallus indusiatus;
  • Phallus caninus;
  • Phallus mokusin;
  • Phallus hadriani.
  • Phallus hadriani (Adrian's or Hadrian's merry);
  • Phallus ndusiatus (bamboo fungus, bamboo mushroom),

even later, in 1811, another species was added to the genus Phallus:

  • Phallus duplicatus (double networt).

And today the genus of phalluses (phalluses) has about 40 species, the vast majority of which live outside of Russia, are not suitable for consumption and are interesting only from a medical point of view.

✎ Similar species, medicinal and nutritional value

Fun mushroom bears little resemblance to other mushrooms, and perhaps to their fellows from the same family and, in particular, to:
- Hadrian's merry (lat. Phallus hadriani),
which in the “egg” stage with a more elongated shape is completely inedible, and is almost never found in Russia.
Since ancient times it has been known that the fungus mushroom is a strong aphrodisiac (or male potency enhancer). And as medical research has shown, this mushroom contains a unique series of compounds called phytosteroids, which in their effect on the body are similar to male sex hormones - androgens and have a beneficial effect on the immune system.
In folk medicine, water and alcohol tinctures from fresh and dried fruiting bodies of the fungus were previously used. Vodka tinctures were used for abdominal pain, they washed wounds with them, and also, with their help, treated gout and kidney diseases. That is why the fungus mushroom is directly related to the so-called mushroom medicine and has been recognized as medicinal in almost all countries, including Russia.
Veselka is used in the treatment of the following diseases:

Malignant tumors: breast cancer, also prostate cancer, cancer gastrointestinal tract or lung cancer and brain cancer;
- benign tumors: breast cysts and uterine fibroids, prostate adenoma and pituitary adenoma, mastopathy or polyps;
- various diseases of the uterus in women, sarcoma and melanoma, leukemia and other similar diseases;
- cardiovascular diseases: heart failure or hypertension;
- joint and skin diseases, treatment of hard-to-heal wounds and skin ulcers (for external use);
- rehabilitation in post-infarction and post-stroke conditions.

Our ancestors have known about the super-healing properties of the fungus for a long time. And the conducted Scientific research showed that the common fungus mushroom contains quite a few beneficial substances that have a pronounced medicinal effect, such as, for example:

Polysaccharides that have antitumor effects (neutralize various cancer cells by making holes in their membranes with their substance);
- alkaloids, which are natural or natural analgesics (or pain relievers);
- antihistamines, which eliminate various allergic and edematous reactions;
- substances that suppress dermatomycosis and fungal skin infections.

According to consumer and food parameters, the common mushroom is considered a mushroom of low quality and is classified as a conditionally edible mushroom of the fourth category, due to the presence of a strong specific odor.

✎ Distribution in nature and seasonality

Veselka vulgaris is a common saprophytic mushroom and feeds on the remains of organic matter, but it can also act as a symbiont, forming mycorrhiza with broad-leaved trees: oak, beech, even with some shrubs.
The common moth is found everywhere, singly or in families, especially often in deciduous forests, preferring soils rich in humus and is distributed throughout Europe, the Caucasus, Siberia and the Far East.
Its ripening season is quite long, lasting from May to October.
Veselka is a mushroom that is unique in its own way, and very rare, it is almost impossible to find it in our area, it grows in the soil, in the form of an egg, which is somewhat similar to a puffball mushroom, for which people call it “damn egg" and "witches egg".
When the mushroom is completely ripe (after about a week), a small bud grows from it, which quickly turns into a fruit stalk, rapidly (literally “before our eyes”) growing upward. This happens in just 10 - 15 minutes, sometimes in full view of some astonished observer, bringing him into furious delight or instilling quiet horror from this spectacle!

✎ Brief description and application

Veselka vulgaris belongs to the section of unspecified mushrooms and reproduces, like other mushrooms, by spores, which are usually spread by flies or other insects attracted by its smell.
The young fruiting body of the common veselka is ovoid and the size of a chicken egg. The egg shell (peridium) is leathery, smooth, white or cream. When ripe, it breaks into two or three lobes, having the appearance of a volva (like many fly agarics), and the fruiting body sprouted from the egg consists of a leg-like receptacle (container, storage) of a cylindrical shape, hollow, with spongy walls, white or yellow, very big size. At the top of the receptacle (leg) there is a non-complex bell-shaped cap with a cellular surface, covered with a mucous dark olive glebe (the inner part of the fruiting bodies of basidiomycetes, as a receptacle for their spores). At the top of the cap there is a dense disk with a passage. The unripe pulp of the fruiting body is gelatinous, with the smell of radish, and the mature or overripe mushroom has a very strong and unpleasant stench of rotting remains or carrion.

Veselka vulgaris is absolutely suitable for consumption, even in its “raw” form, if, of course, the outer shell is first removed from it. At a young age, when the mushroom is still in the soil, in the form of an egg, it is considered tasty or even delicacy.
For example, in our time (in France) it is consumed directly in its “raw” form, like radishes. And in ancient times, “raw” young fruits of the Veselka common spruce with sour cream and salt even in Rus'. And the main thing here was not to forget to remove the outer shell from the mushroom before eating it.
