In catalan the correct name is pinetell: penny-bun. Perhaps the mistake comes from in catalan a and e are often pronounced as a neutral sound. Pèrez 19:13, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Butter?!

I fried these in butter the other day....I'd never heard that one before. can anyone let me know why they aren't supposed to be cooked in butter? cheers, Cas Liber | talk | contribs 11:53, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

I've never cooked it in butter, I always use olive oil.--Pedroserafin 15:37, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
They are good sliced like french fries and cooked in butter. But the texture is still wierd, you might be better off beer battering and frying them in oil. Alan Rockefeller (Talk - contribs) 00:16, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
I did beer batter last year, I was just lazy this time. Autumn is very rainy in Sydney and loads of fungi...cheers, Cas Liber | talk | contribs 00:17, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Distribution

The sentence about Polish people picking them in Sydney should be changed. Firstly, Russian, Ukranian, Czech and other nationalities pick this mushroom, and not only near Sydney. Also near melbourne, near Adelaide etc etc, not to mention that the Chinese pick it all over China (6000 tons per year, and thats only the commercial crop) and so on in many countries and areas around the world. France, Mexico, Chile, Italy, the list is endless. ```

Great, you're welcome to add it to the article, and some refs, if possible, would be great too. cheers, Cas Liber | talk | contribs 06:43, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
