\"\"His name refers to the ethylic rituals of antiquity. Its way of growing in a circle makes reference to magical universes of fairies and elves. It is both delicate and intense, awakening the senses. Wrapped in something of mystery and enchantment, the <\/span>Lepista Sordida<\/span><\/i> is an edible mushroom present in the Atlantic Forest and full of potential to be explored.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Combining a delicate appearance with intense flavors, the <\/span>Lepista Sordida<\/span><\/i> stirs up the sensoriality. It is a mild mushroom and <\/span>tasty <\/span>to the touch, especially the lamellae \u2013 which are the lower part of the hat through which the spores, responsible for the reproduction of the fungus, are dispersed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For the palate, it brings an intense and delicius taste combined with a soft and consistent texture. It's not easy to define its flavor, as it seems to refer to different universes, from the forest to the sea. Important: before tasting this mushroom, it is necessary to cook it. Lepista Sordida cannot be eaten raw, in which state it is toxic. After going through some cooking - such as boiling or stir-fry - the toxins are eliminated and it is ready for consumption.<\/span><\/p>\n

Growing on top of the litter - that layer of organic material on top of the soil -, the <\/span>Lepista Sordida<\/span><\/i> is gregarious, that is, always appears in groups<\/span>. The different mushrooms can <\/span>grow forming a circle, known as a fairy or elf ring.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The word <\/span>Lepista<\/span><\/i> refers to a type of chalice that was used in Greek and Roman temples and makes reference to the concave shape of the mushroom's hat, which resembles a cup. Now the term <\/span>Sordida<\/span><\/i> has several meanings and one of them is dirty, which can refer to its color, which is usually<\/span>_gray<\/span>ish.<\/span><\/p>\n

Its color, incidentally, is not always the same or easy to define. She presents <\/span>some variations, oscillating between lilac, violet and white in grayish tones. The <\/span>Lepista Sordida<\/span><\/i> is small, fits in the palm of the hand, has a hat three to ten centimeters wide and a strain (structure <\/span>similar <\/span>to the stem) up to ten centimeters high.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In addition to its gastronomic and nutritional value, the <\/span>Lepista Sordida<\/span><\/i> brings other attributes. In the field of medicine and pharmacy, academic research shows that it has compounds with properties <\/span>antibacterial, antibiotic<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>antifungals and antioxidants<\/span><\/a><\/span>,<\/span> among others. In the textile industry, research indicates that its<\/span> extract could be used as a bleach<\/span><\/a><\/span>,<\/span> carrying out the treatment of waste water pollutants.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If biology and other sciences succeed in describing, cataloging and dissecting this fungus, this knowledge is not enough to end the fascination it can generate. Walking through the forest's biodiversity and coming across a group of mushrooms forming a violet circle contrasting with the leaves on the ground is an incredible experience. The alert that the attractive color can bring is quickly replaced by the expectation of the flavors it provides and which no description can handle.<\/span><\/p>\n
