Green russula (Russula aeruginea) is an edible mushroom that can be found summer-fall.
It grows in association with hardwoods or conifers, often with birch trees.
Green russulas are identified by their uniform green cap and brittle stem. Spore print is creamy yellow.
Green russulas have a mild flavor that can be compared to white fish. They can be combined with other mushrooms in dishes or dried for preservation.
