Penny Bun (Boletus edulis) is a chunky-looking mushroom with a cap that looks like a well-baked bread roll.

It’s one of the most sought-after wild mushrooms, with a fine flavor and texture. It is highly prized by the food industry, which dries them and uses them as a flavoring for soup. They offer a number of health benefits, including natural antioxidants, minerals and vitamins, and are a rich source of fiber as well as being low in calories and saturated and unsaturated fat.
