              It is a mushroom that grows in a symbiotic relationship with the 
              roots of suitable host plants and in autumn can be found fruiting 
              on the soil around them. Mushrooms of these fungi have a strong 
              flavour. Unlike most mushrooms they maintain their flavour after 
              drying or cooking at autoclave temperatures. They can be eaten fresh, 
              dried or salted.
