Fresh Saffron Milk Caps. 1lb
Beloved by chefs across Europe, the Saffron Milk Cap (Lactarius deliciosus) is a true seasonal treasure. Slice into it and watch its vivid orange milk appear — a sign of its incredible freshness. With a sweet, nutty, and gently earthy flavor, it brings warmth and depth to any dish.
Sauté with garlic and parsley like the Spanish do, fold into buttery stews or rich risottos, or pair with wild herbs and olive oil for a simple, elegant plate. Slight green hues are natural bruising — proof of its wild origin.
Available only in autumn, this is a mushroom to celebrate while it lasts — short season, big reward.
