LACTARIUS PIPERATUS

So happy to finally identify these mysterious mushrooms!
I regretfully did not keep or eat the first pair I found.
I nibbled tiny a piece, & spit it out, when my mouth began tingling very strongly!
I did not know what it was at the time, & thought it may be a reaction to strong poison.
Nope!
This is a spicy, hot mushroom, how awesome!
I am hoping to find more & eat them!
I would love to see a younger stage.
The 1st two I found were in prime condition, not too young, or too old.
What a blessing to capture such beauties!
