Produce Lesson- Oyster Mushrooms


It's said to not only look like an oyster, but taste like one as well! Native to us in North America, oyster mushrooms can be cooked and used in any way you’d like. Rule of thumb? If you can’t pinch through it, don’t eat it. Chop off the tough part and use it for a stock, and enjoy the rest. Cook them for 10-20 min and enjoy the soft, chewy texture of these seafood-mock mushrooms. Great in stir-fry, white sauce, and make a fantastic pair with chicken.
