Oyster Mushrooms copy - a photo on Flickriver

Oyster Mushroom:Pleurotus ostreatus, the pearl oyster mushroom or tree oyster mushroom, is a common edible mushroom. It was first cultivated in Germany as a subsistence measure during World War I and is now grown commercially around the world for food. It is related to the similarly cultivated king oyster mushroom.
Oyster mushrooms are used in many different recipes and are available in a range of supermarkets. They are particularly popular in Asia for their subtle nutty flavour, and are even said to taste like oysters as well as resembling them. Oyster mushrooms are a high yield, fast growing crop A study has shown that consumption of oyster mushroom extracts can lower cholesterol levels.Oyster mushrooms are medium to large in size with caps averaging 5-25 centimeters in diameter and a very short or non-existent stem. The caps are broad and fan-like, ranging in color from dark gray, brown, tan, pink, to yellow, and have curled edges that become wavy and lobed with maturity. White gills extend from beneath the cap, and the flesh is white, meaty, and firm. Oyster mushrooms have a slightly chewy texture and are soft with a bittersweet aroma reminiscent of anise. When cooked, they have a mild and nutty, seafood-like flavor.
