Those who at least once dealt with oils, it immediately becomes clear why these mushrooms received such a name. Their hats are covered with a shiny film that has an oily texture. If you cut the mushroom in half, inside you will see a yellow-white pulp, which also causes associations with butter. In some regions, the name of the fungus sounds slightly different, but it is certainly associated with oil: “masleha”, “Pancake week”, “butterfish”. It has long been a favorite of mushroom pickers due to its pleasant texture, mouth-watering taste and an abundance of simple pickling recipes.

Contraindications
Despite the fact that butterflies are considered one of the most useful mushrooms, there are contraindications to their use.
- Gastrointestinal diseases. In mushrooms, there is a lot of fiber saturated with quinine. The substance impedes digestion and irritates the gastric mucosa.
- Individual intolerance. Mushrooms are allergenic foods. Their use can cause rashes and other manifestations of the negative reaction of the body.
- Pregnancy, lactation and children under seven years of age. Of all the mushrooms, oleagins have the most pronounced absorbent properties. They can accumulate harmful radionuclides. This negatively affects the development of the child.

Cooking technology
If you learn to salt the butter, you will never have problems with how to consume a rich crop of mushrooms, and on the shelf there will always be a couple of cans with a delicious snack for fried potatoes or alcohol. And the workpiece can be used for salads, as a filling for pancakes, pizza, tartlets.
Raw material preparation
Oil cans are a perishable product. They should be processed immediately after collection, having previously been laid out in a single layer on newspapers or dry cloth. If there is no time, you can put the "crop" in the refrigerator, but not more than 12 hours. Next, prepare the raw materials, which involves six steps.
- Hand protection. First put on household or medical gloves. Mushroom juice stains the skin and nails in a dark brown color, which is then very difficult to remove.
- Cleaning up. Lubricants should be cleaned dry. If you pre-soak them in water, they will become terribly slippery and it will be practically impossible to remove the film from them. And from a dry hat and legs, it leaves easily. It is enough to pry the film with a small sharp knife. You also need to cut off the lower part of the leg and all the darkened areas from the mushroom.
- The washing up. To remove the remains of sand and forest debris, you need to place mushrooms in a basin with cold water with a small amount of salt for half an hour. After that, rinse the oil under the tap another three to four times.
- Preparation for cooking. Large mushrooms are best cut into two or four parts, depending on size. Small can be cooked unchanged.
- Cooking. Dip the mushrooms and peeled onion in salted water, add a couple drops of vinegar so that the flesh does not darken, and bring to a boil. Opinions differ on cooking time. Someone believes that five minutes is enough, and someone claims that you need to cook mushrooms for at least 40 minutes. As practice shows, 20 minutes is enough for the butter to cook and acquire a pleasant crunch.
- Drying out. Throw the mushrooms in a colander so that they are completely glass of water. The broth needs to be poured, and the bulb discarded.
Canning
In order for the workpiece to be stored for a long time and delighted with a bright taste for a whole year, you must strictly adhere to the technology consisting of six stages.
- Cooking marinade. In an enameled pan, boil water with spices.
- Mushroom processing. Dip the prepared mushrooms in a pan with marinade and boil for a quarter of an hour.
- Additional ingredients. Add a preservative (vinegar or citric acid) and additional spices to the pan. Boil another ten minutes.
- Filling cans. Remove the mushrooms from the pan with a slotted spoon and distribute them in jars.Top with hot marinade. It is better to preserve in a half-liter container.
- Sterilization. Lay a towel at the bottom of a large pan, place the jars and cover them with seaming lids. Pour water into the pan so that to the edge of the cans there remains 1.5-2 cm. From the moment of boiling, a half-liter can is sterilized for 30 minutes, and a liter - 40 minutes.
- Sunset. Roll up the jars, wrap them in a warm blanket, and leave them in this form for two days. Move the workpiece for storage to a pantry or other cool place.
Recipe Table
To make the workpiece tasty, you need to add a few spices and spices. The table shows the popular recipes. The ingredients for the marinade are indicated per 1 liter of water. This volume of liquid is enough for 1-1.5 kg of prepared mushrooms.
