Recognized by sight: Penny-bun brown cap, suggesting the common name Penny-bun bolete in England; reticulate stipe becoming somewhat bulbous at the base, with abundant litter adhering to the base of stipe. I’d eat it as that.

Summary: It was…

…no bigger than my fist. Isn’t B. edulis larger, and var. grandedulis bigger still?

Summary: What about Boletus edulis var. grandedulis?

This certainly looks a little bit different from var. edulis.
