              This purplish red hue mushrooms scientific name is Tricholomopsis rutilan .Despite the                                                                                      way around it .
              tongue twisting scientific name it is adorably called plums and custard mushroom in-
              dicating plums for the purple coloured cap and custard for the yellow gills .Eventhough
              the name has a sweet tone to it unfortunately this fungus is very bitter and inedible
              .The technique i use for this mushroom is called scribbling a simple and fast technique
              that takes a short time to complete.Just like a kid with crayons simply make circle
              squiggles repetitively .Light areas require far apart scribbling while darker areas needs
              more pressure and a more tighter scribbling. Time taken 1 hour .
