Small spikes can be seen on the surface of certain types of mushrooms: as a rule, most often such a spiked hymenophore has hedgehogs and puffballs. Most of these fruiting bodies are edible at a young age and can be subjected to any kind of culinary processing. If you collect prickly mushrooms in late autumn, then you can eat them only after a long boil.
