Nelieli pūpēži, bieži aug lielās un blīvās grupās. Ēdami tikai jaunie - ar baltu mīkstumu. Virsmiziņa ir jānovelk.
Cepami bez iepriekšējas novārīšanas. Ļoti garšīgi, lietojami kopā ar citām sēnēm vai zupās.
The width of its fruiting body usually does not exceed 5 cm, while its height can reach up to 10 cm.
Spore powder is brown or olive-brown. It is very common in Latvia. It grows on soil in all types of forest,
often in large dense groups from July to October.
If one steps upon an old fungus of that species, it explodes and ejects a small cloud of brown dust (spores, in fact).
It is edible and delicious when fried without boiling, tasty when young (e.g., while its flesh is still white).
