Boletus edulis, commonly known as penny bun, porcino or cep. The fruit bodies of Boletus edulis can grow singly or in small clusters of two or three specimens. The mushroom’s habitat consists of areas dominated by pine (Pinus spp.), spruce (Picea spp.), hemlock (Tsuga spp.) and fir (Abies spp.) trees, although other hosts include chestnut, chinquapin, beech, Keteleeria spp., Lithocarpus spp., and oak. In California, porcini have been collected in a variety of forests, such as coastal forests, dry interior oak forests and savannas and interior high-elevation montane mixed forests, to an altitude of 3,500 m (11,500 ft). In northwestern Spain, they are common in scrublands dominated by the rock rose species Cistus ladanifer and Halimium lasianthum.
these are so yummy!!! i always harvest them on the fall/winter in oak forests :) we call them “cepas” here.
