Description
Oyster mushrooms, scientifically known as Pleurotus spp., encompass several species of edible fungi characterized by their delicate, fan- shaped caps and short, off-center stems. They come in various colors, including pale cream, pink, yellow, and blue-gray, depending on the species. These mushrooms are prized for their mild, slightly sweet flavor and tender texture. They are commonly used in various culinary applications, including stir-fries, soups, salads, and as a meat substitute due to their meaty texture. Oyster mushrooms are also favored by home cultivators for their ease of cultivation and relatively fast growth compared to other mushroom varieties. They thrive in a humid environment and are often cultivated on a substrate of straw, sawdust, or other agricultural byproducts.
