About

Hericium cirrhatum is a saprotrophic fungus, commonly known as the tiered tooth fungus or spine face. The species is edible and good eating when young. It has a texture not unlike tender meat or fish. The flesh is cream in colour with an attractive smell when young, but it develops a very unpleasant odour in older specimens.
