Is this an edible bolete (Porcini)

We eat a lot of boletes.  The rules I use is if you bruise it or slice it and it turns blue, leave it in the woods.  If it does not bruise blue you can put a tiny bit in your mouth to taste if it is bitter and spit it out.  These are not poisonous, just too bitter to eat.  The ones that are not bitter are safe to eat.  Of course always double check in your mushroom ID book.  Remember this does NOT pertain to gilled mushrooms.
