An excerpt characterizing the brilliant cobweb
French Queen Marie AntoinetteNext to her, not taking her eyes off her and catching her every movement, walked "our friend" Axel. He seemed very happy and, at the same time, for some reason deeply sad... The queen took his arm with a slight movement and gently asked:
- But, how can I, because I will miss you so much, my dear friend? Time passes too slowly when you are so far away...
– Your Majesty, why torture me?.. You know why all this is... And you know how hard it is for me to leave you! I have already managed to avoid unwanted marriages twice already, but my father does not lose hope of marrying me... He does not like the rumors about my love for you. Yes, and I do not like them, I can not, I have no right to harm you. Oh, if only I could be close to you!.. To see you, to touch you... How hard it is for me to leave!.. And I am so afraid for you...
- Go to Italy, my friend, they will wait for you there. Just don't be too long! I'll be waiting for you too... – the Queen said with a gentle smile.
Axel fell with a long kiss to her graceful hand, and when he raised his eyes, there was so much love and anxiety in them that the poor queen, unable to stand it, exclaimed:
"Oh, don't worry, my friend! I am so well protected here that even if I wanted to, nothing could happen to me! Ride with God and come back soon...
Axel looked at her beautiful face so dear to him for a long time, as if absorbing every line and trying to keep this moment in his heart forever, and then he bowed low to her and quickly walked along the path to the exit, without turning around and not stopping, as if afraid that if he turns around, he simply won’t have enough strength to leave ...
And she saw him off with her huge blue eyes suddenly moistened, in which the deepest sadness lurked ... She was a queen and had no right to love him. But she was also just a woman whose heart entirely belonged to this purest, brave man forever ... without asking anyone for permission ...
"Oh, how sad, isn't it?" Stella whispered softly. How I wish I could help them!
– Do they need any help? I was surprised.
Stella just nodded her curly head, without saying a word, and again began to show a new episode ... I was very surprised by her deep participation in this charming story, which so far seemed to me just a very sweet story of someone's love. But since I already knew quite well the responsiveness and kindness of Stella's big heart, somewhere in the depths of my soul I was almost sure that everything would certainly not be as simple as it seems at first, and I could only wait ...
We saw the same park, but I had no idea how much time had passed there since we saw them in the last "episode".
That evening, the whole park literally shone and shimmered with thousands of colored lights, which, merging with the shimmering night sky, formed a magnificent continuous sparkling fireworks. In terms of the splendor of the preparation, it was probably some kind of grandiose party, during which all the guests, at the bizarre desire of the queen, were dressed exclusively in white clothes and, somewhat reminiscent of the ancient priests, “organized” walked through the wonderfully lit, sparkling park, heading towards the beautiful stone gazebo, called by everyone - the Temple of Love.
Cobweb, a very widespread, poorly known mushroom. It cannot be called particularly demanding on the habitat. Cobweb can grow in both deciduous and mixed forests. They tend to like moist places. Very often, the cobweb mushroom can be found along the edge of the swamp.
Because of this, they got their second name "swamp". But, in autumn, they can be found, even in places quite remote from the swamps. There they can be found in fairly large groups. Young cobwebs are very attractive with their appearance, strong fleshy body, bright yellow. Their hats are rounded. The spore-bearing plates are hidden.
Adult mushrooms can resemble a toadstool. They have a darker color and the remains of a coverlet resembling a cobweb. These mushrooms are quite valuable and tasty. The most important thing you need to know and be able to do is to distinguish them from other marsh mushrooms. Because among the variety of these mushrooms, poisonous ones also come across.
Poisonous mushrooms can be distinguished by some signs, such as an unpleasant smell, a very bright color, and the legs of their bodies are mostly covered with scales. Also, they do not have the correct beautiful shape. They say that the best way to store this mushroom is drying.

Cobweb mushrooms are not yet so popular among mushroom pickers. However, some varieties have fleshy and tasty flesh, and some poisonous species are used as a medicine.
What does the cobweb mushroom look like and where does it grow
The name cobweb refers to the genus of mushrooms of the same family. Among mushroom pickers, the popular name of the bog is quite common, which reflects the characteristics of the growth of the fungus. The mushroom got its main name due to the fact that at the junction of the stem and cap it has a kind of cobweb, which practically disappears as it grows older. Cobwebs grow mainly in deciduous or mixed forests, but certainly on very wet ground: both near the swamp and in lowlands and ravines.
These mushrooms are distributed almost everywhere in the temperate climatic zone of our country - from the European part and the Urals to Siberia and the Far East. Less often they can be found in the taiga, since most varieties do not like too shaded places.
Interesting that in appearance different types of cobwebs differ quite strongly, and novice mushroom pickers can mistake them for completely different families. There are fruiting bodies of both classical shape and mushrooms with spherical and conical caps. The surface can be both dry and mucous, with a smooth or scaly texture. The color of the hats is also quite diverse: yellow, orange, brown-red, burgundy and even white-violet.
Cobwebs grow singly, but more often - in families from 10 to 30 pieces. They should be looked for in the lowlands, and they are collected mainly at the end of summer and until the onset of the first autumn frosts (end of October in the European part of the country and the second half of September in Siberia).

Nutritional value and palatability of cobweb
Some types of cobwebs belong to. In aroma, they are inferior to the classic representatives - white and many others, since they have practically no smell. However, the taste of these representatives is quite pronounced. And given that many varieties are large (15-17 cm in diameter of the cap and up to 10 cm in height of the stem), mushroom pickers willingly collect them for cooking and conservation.
In addition, the cobweb, like many other mushrooms, mainly consists of water, and 100 g of live weight give no more than 30 kcal.

Description of the types of cobweb
The Spider family includes several dozen species of mushrooms, and most of them grow in Russia. The most common are discussed below.
This representative is also called triumphal. It forms fairly large fruiting bodies with a cap diameter of up to 12 cm. Moreover, in young representatives, it resembles a sphere, and then becomes flat. In color - from yellow to brown tones.
The pulp of this species does not have a special smell and dries out rather quickly when broken.. On the other hand, this is the most popular representative of the family among mushroom pickers, since its taste qualities allow it to be used as the basis for first and second courses, as well as for pickling and pickling.
This representative is also called red. It has a classic shape - a spherical hat of orange, ruddy and reddish hues (about 10 cm in diameter). The leg is white, fleshy, and can grow to a considerable height (up to 20 cm).
The mushroom is completely edible, and besides, it has an undeniable advantage - closely related poisonous or deadly representatives do not look like it. However, among mushroom pickers it is not popular enough. Interestingly, it grows only under birches.
This is a rather rare species, which is mainly found in Central Europe, and in Russia, it is distributed only in the forests of Bashkiria. It almost always grows in large families, so mushroom pickers immediately collect large crops.
In appearance, it resembles real mushrooms from postcards: a large hat in the form of a hemisphere with rich brown, brown and burgundy hues, as well as a glossy surface (15-20 cm in diameter). The legs grow up to 14 cm in height, dense, fleshy, white.
IT IS INTERESTING
In the Gossamer family, this species is considered the most valuable in terms of taste. However, it is extremely rare, therefore, in most European countries it is listed in the local Red Books.
white purple
This is a conditionally edible representative, which does not have a special taste value, but nevertheless, it can be eaten without fear for health. Dimensions are not very large- the diameter of the cap is within 8 cm, the height of the leg is up to 10 cm. The color is rather atypical: from white to lilac and dirty shades. It mainly grows in groups of up to 10 mushrooms, occurs mainly in birch forests and oak forests.
NOTE
This variety is similar to the inedible goat's cobweb. The pale purple species is characterized by an unpleasant odor and a thinner, taller stem.
Scarlet
This species is also conditionally edible. It has a light brown rather large hat (up to 15 cm), which is practically spliced with a thick (1-1.5 cm in girth) leg. Interestingly, the flesh on the cut has a light blue tint, and quickly turns red in the air.
And one more interesting feature - despite the fact that the pulp of this variety has a fairly strong aroma (unlike most other species), it tastes neutral, therefore among mushroom pickers, this species is not very popular.
Red olive
Inedible species, the use of which can cause poisoning. The cap is up to 10-12 cm in diameter, the surface is mucous to the touch, spherical in shape.
The color of the leg is interesting - if it is purple on top, then it acquires red hues in the lower half. The pulp tastes extremely bitter, and on the cut, it has olive and purple hues, from which the species got its name.
Brilliant
poisonous representative, the use of which is dangerous to health. It looks very beautiful - it has brown hats with a shiny surface. However, the pulp, even in a thermally processed form, calls for severe poisoning, and in large doses it can be fatal.
most special
This is the most dangerous representative, which is strictly forbidden to use even in small quantities. The color is light, creamy and yellowish. An interesting feature is that the pulp smells like a radish or raw potato. The hat reaches a diameter of 12 cm, the leg is up to 10 cm high.
In terms of toxicity, this mushroom practically coincides with, however, it is quite easy to identify it by the features of its appearance. In addition, none of the edible representatives of the Pautinnikove family and other families are similar to this species.
Features of the triumphant cobweb (video)
cobweb mushroom, very common throughout the world, only in our area, there are more than forty (!) Species. Of all this diversity, only two species are considered edible - Superb Webbed and Watery Blue Webbed. The rest are unsuitable for eating, and more than ten species are completely poisonous. Therefore, we recommend that you do not collect these mushrooms unless you are a super experienced and confident mushroom picker, although even in this case, there are many other mushrooms worthy of attention that are less dangerous. Cobwebs grow throughout the CIS countries, from Siberia to the European part of the countries, in coniferous and deciduous forests. One of the main differences between these mushrooms is their very bright, even rather acidic color. The colors of the coloring are varied, according to this color they are given names, for example: white-violet cobweb, red-scaled cobweb, blue-barreled cobweb, watery blue cobweb, purple cobweb and so on in the list.
The mushroom took its name because of another of its features, young fruiting bodies have a veil-like film at the junction of the cap and stem of the mushroom. When the mushroom grows, this film will stretch and tear, into separate threads that will resemble a cobweb. When they get old, this feature often disappears, or remains in the form of a ring on the stem.
It is worth emphasizing once again the danger and insidiousness of these mushrooms, often their poison does not act immediately, but sometimes even after two weeks, which makes it difficult to diagnose poisoning, and complicates the task of doctors. Spider web often disguises itself as other mushrooms, such as russula, and valui. Remember that mushrooms do not grow on the ground, it will most likely be a cobweb.
