The comb tooth fungus is a large (mostly) white mass with an open framework of numerous toothed branches. The external appearance is white to creamy. The flesh is soft yet brittle. The stalk is an indistinct stub and is hairy. Edible when young and white in color. Mild nutty taste cook before eating.If you're wanting to try for a lobster flavor, slice the Comb Tooth and saute it in butter, being careful not to overcook it. Feel free to add some garlic or other seasonings for a bit more flavor. A lot of the butter will be absorbed, so you may need to add more during cooking.Very fragile and will break apart quite easily so handle with care. Thoroughly clean by shaking and hand removal if needed. If the mushroom has begun to discolor to a yellowish tone, it is old and likely will have a sour or unpleasant flavor after cooking.
