Wine Cap Mushrooms (Stropharia rugoso-annulata) are mostly used in the culinary and gardening worlds, not so much medicinal. They can also be called Stroph, King Stropharia, and Garden Giants and even Godzilla mushrooms because if left to grow and mature can grow to weigh around 5 pounds! They can be found naturally growing around stream beds and in wood chips or they can be cultivated alongside vegetables in a garden. These tasty little mushrooms have a mild earthy and nutty flavor with hints of both potato and red wine. Wine Caps pair perfectly with pasta, meat sauces and of course, a glass of wine!
