In Ukraine, foraging mushrooms is deeply rooted in tradition. Families head into the forest with baskets, knives, and thermoses of tea. It’s not just about food — it’s about connecting with nature, passing down knowledge, and competing (gently!) for the most perfect porcini.
What makes it special:
• Ukrainians often walk 5–10 km through dense forest — the journey is part of the joy.
• Mushrooms are sorted, cleaned, and cooked immediately — it’s almost ceremonial.
• Each region has its favorites: in the west — porcini, aspen mushrooms, slippery jacks; in the east — russulas, honey mushrooms.
• Mushrooms are preserved for winter: dried, pickled, frozen — they’re part of our survival pantry.
Tips for newcomers:
• Never pick what you don’t recognize. Even seasoned foragers make mistakes.
• There’s no centralized mushroom inspection system — it’s all personal responsibility.
• The best way to learn? Go with someone who knows the forest and the fungi.
