Did you know that there are many rare varieties of mushrooms in the world? Today we will tell you about Guchhi Mushroom found in Kashmir, India, which costs from 40 to 50 thousand rupees a kg. PM Narendra Modi also likes its vegetable very much. Let’s know about this specialty of Kashmir.
One of the priciest mushrooms in the world is the Gucchi mushroom, which is cultivated in Kashmir. Yartsa Gunbu, European White Truffle, and chanterelles are just a few of the thousands of dollars-priced mushrooms available. However, Gucchi, one of the top five most costly mushrooms globally, is exclusively found in South and North Kashmir, India.
What makes them unique is that they naturally grow rather than being cultivated. The fruits of the labor of those who live on the hills are known as morels in Urdu and English. It is an invaluable natural gem that must be discovered over several mountain passes.
When, where and how do you get bunches?
March and April are the best times of year to find gucchi mushrooms. Rain, thunder, and lightning all happen at this hour. Let me tell you, guchchi is found, broken, dried, and sold in Aripal, a very picturesque hamlet in the Kashmiri district of Pulwama. You’ll be shocked to hear that premium bunches may get up to 40,000 rupees per kilogram.
Which cuisine is used in?
Although they are used in many types of cuisine like Chinese, Arabic and Italian, but it is most fun in Kashmiri food. The taste of preparing them by pulao, korma or stuffed can not be tasted in any other cuisine.
PM Modi is also crazy about taste of Guchhi Mushroom
The pulao tastes much better when the gucchi complements the other wonderful flavors of Kashmir. One of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s favorite veggies, rumour has it. PM Modi also discussed the taste and characteristics of it in an interview. They are extremely popular not just in India but even abroad and are reserved for exceptional visitors on special occasions. This is the rationale behind the inclusion of this Kashmiri mushroom on the menus of several large restaurants throughout the globe.
