Pink Oyster Mushroom Growing Kit
The Pink Oyster Mushroom Growing Kit is a fun and creative way to grow gourmet mushrooms in your own kitchen. Pink Oyster mushrooms were first cataloged by botanist Georg Eberhard Rumphius under the name Agaricus djamor in the 1600’s. It was later transferred to the genus Pleurotus by Karel Bernard Boedijn in 1959, and has since been known as Pleurotus djamor. They are edible mushrooms and while they taste bitter raw, their flavor transforms to something really lovely and bacon-ish when cooked. Their unique shape and color give an elegant flair to any plate.
These kits were developed as a way for people to learn a little more about growing mushrooms than your standard mushroom kits will teach you, and no special equipment is required. This kit includes a 5mL mushroom culture, instructions, a glossary of mycology terms, and a fungi word search.
The instructions cover two ways of growing them - the first way being to grow them in a bag of brown rice on your kitchen counter, the second way is to grow them in a bucket of straw. There is enough culture included to try both methods. Regardless of your growing medium of choice, these are fascinating to grow and delightful to cook with.
