Native Mushrooms Cavite, Philippines

Yellow Mushroom





         Mushrooms are only visible in Cavite during the monsoon season. They mostly sprout after rains when there is relative higher humidity. Surprisingly, there are lots of mushrooms growing in the Philippines especially in fertile areas near rivers or streams.

         Filipinos (Tagalogs) have few specific names for different mushrooms. We may conclude from this that mushrooms are not rarely used in Philippine cuisine given such limited eponyms for mushrooms in the Philippines.
