If not from the forest, then from the market... ๐Ÿ„
It is said that those who seek will find. 

Well, I can't confirm that this is fulfilled every time and that everybody finds the desired thing in life. Or just a small thing that is searching for... no, it is not always achieved. For example, one can search for a tiny mushroom, walk in forests and woods and be unsuccessful in that activity for a long time. That person can question the first statement and doubt the correctness of the same.  

On the others side, there are situations where the combo of the circumstances makes miracles. You don't even think about finding an object you would generally like to see and voila - you have it in front of your nose. When the rain in Porto, a closed market and the necessity to buy some veggies make you find those mushrooms you have been searching for in nature without success... Is it a lucky event to find them in a market? I bet it is.

The result of all this searching not searching activity can sometimes be out of our hands, we just find ourselves seeing a few stalls selling mushrooms. Fresh and dried ones. Of different types. Let's start with the common mushrooms, like champignons, portobello, shiitake or Pleurotus. I use them pretty often as they can be found easily (in markets and shops) at my place. I like them in sauces, soups, tortillas or breaded.

The label for the following one says Pรฉ de Carneiro. I had no clue what that meant to be so I searched by the name and what came as the result was [Hydnum repandum](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydnum_repandum). It is also known as Sweet Tooth. Nice name :))

But it was not all. My attention was captured by a more interesting mushroom, Morchella (Morels). I have never found them in my mushroom-hunting adventures... Until now, while strolling among the stalls in this market. Does it count? ๐Ÿ˜

I am not sure if I would even pick any of these if I would find them in nature. There are so many types of them and I would not be sure if they were edible. But from now on, if I find morels, I will take them!! Not that I have any hope that it will happen, ever...
Looking at the price of them (55 euros for 100gr of dried Morchella) I think I can live without using them in my dishes. Portobello will be also good for today's lunch :D

Another interesting mushroom finding... Shiitake growing on a log. Really cool to have this offer, basically you would have the feeling of picking these mushrooms directly from the wood. You just have to forget the paying part and the place where you found the log (the market) and be happy for the rest of the day lol.

Finishing these lines for the #FungiFriday event held by @ewkaw, I will put my shoes on and go to the ~~woods~~ market and bring home some fungi ingredients for today's lunch. Somehow Friday becomes weird if there is no mushroom on the table ๐Ÿ„
