DESCRIPTION / The Grey Oyster, AKA Pleurotus ostreatus is an edible mushroom species that can be found across much of the world’s temperate woodland environments. They prefer cooler temperatures between 8 and 20 degrees.
The shape of the mushroom is the typical shelf-like shape of the Pleurotus species.
COOKING / With their subtle earthy flavors and delicate texture, oyster mushrooms are great in Asian style soups or simply sautéed with garlic on toast. Consider trying my all-time favorite using it for a delicious vegan shawarma.
HEALTH / The high nutritional value and potential medicinal uses suggest that the oyster mushrooms are pharmacologically important as functional foods. Pleurotus are generally rich in proteins with essential amino acids, physiologically important polysaccharides and essential fatty acids, dietary fibers, important minerals, and some vitamins.
TIPS / To delay fruiting, especially when gifting, refrigerate upon receipt.
As mushrooms grow bags are living organisms, we send them at their prime and it can take up to two weeks before shipping.
