A mushroom of the Basidiomycete, Gastromycete, order Pythium, family Earthcombaceae. It is also called Tsuchigaki (earth persimmon). It is a mushroom with a round pouch on top of a thick star-shaped shell. At first, it is a hard gray-brown sphere about 2-3 cm in diameter, and grows partly exposed from the ground. When it ripens, the thick leathery outer shell splits radially, revealing a round pouch filled with powdery spores. The star-shaped shell opens outward when it gets wet from rain, but when it dries, it shrinks inward and pushes the pouch, releasing the spores from a small hole at the tip of the pouch. It often grows on mountain cliffs from summer to autumn. The contents of the pouch of immature mushrooms in early summer are white and edible. It is delicious when sliced thinly and fried in butter.

担子菌類、腹菌類ニセショウロ目ツチグリ科のキノコ。ツチガキ(土柿)ともいう。星形に裂けた厚い殻の上に、丸い袋をのせたような形のキノコ。初めは径2~3センチメートルの灰褐色の硬い球状で、地面からなかば露出して生える。熟すと外側の革質の厚い殻が放射状に裂けて、中に粉状の胞子を満たした丸い袋を露呈する。星形に開いた殻は雨などで湿ると外に開くが、乾くと内側に縮まって袋を押すので、中の胞子は袋の先端にあいた小さな穴から外に放出される。夏から秋、山の崖土(がけつち)に多く発生する。初夏のころの未熟のものは袋の中身が白く、食用になる。薄く切ってバターで炒(いた)めると美味である。 [今関六也] 夏から秋、山の崖土に発生する。星型の殻は湿ると外に開き、乾くと内側に縮まる。別名ツチガキ(土柿)©Shogakukan 撮影/おくやまひさし"> ツチグリ ©藤島淳三"> キノコのおもな種類(担子菌類)(7)〔… 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
