Nordisk Ministerråd

Jørn Gry

Mushrooms recognised as edible have been collected and cultivated for many years. In the Nordic countries, the interest for eating mushrooms has increased. In order to ensure that Nordic consumers will be supplied with safe and well characterised, edible mushrooms on the market, this publication aims at providing tools for the in-house control of actors producing and trading mushroom products. The report is divided into two documents: (a) Volume I: Mushrooms traded as food - Nordic questionnaire and guidance list for edible mushrooms suitable for commercial marketing; (b) Volume II: Background information, with general information in section 1 and in section 2, risk assessments of more than 100 mushroom species (which will be published later). All mushrooms on the lists have been risk assessed regarding their safe use as food, in particular focusing on their potential content of inherent toxicants. The goal is food safety.
