 | OYSTER
The Oyster mushroom (species pleurotis) comes in many shapes and colours. We grow
the traditional Grey Oysters & occasionally get very pretty Yellow Oysters. These
look great in salads, floating on top of a soup or as a garnish. They have a distinctive
flavour and a little goes a long way. The stems of the Oyster mushrooms are soft
and flavourful.

 | SHIITAKE
Mushroom. Perhaps the best known of the exotic mushrooms. The Shiitake mushroom
is a native species of Japan. They are denser than regular mushrooms and should
be cut up in small thin slices or pieces. Discard the stems or use them in soups
& stocks, as they are a bit tough. Shiitake is a star when it comes to versatility.
This dark brown mushroom, with caps ranging in size from 2 to 4 inches, is the
most widely consumed mushroom in Asia. It has been cultivated there for centuries.
Its earthy fragrance and meaty texture enhances a wide variety of dishes since
the results are beautiful whether they are sautéed, baked, grilled, stir fried,
or sliced thin and used in salads. Shiitake mushrooms have traditionally been
used to add complexity to stews or soups, and the stems create deeply flavourful
stocks. Shiitake may also be stuffed and grilled. Gourmet Mushrooms adheres to
the stringent quality standards developed in Japan that require the edges of the
cap to be "in-rolled "; thus the consumer is assured of locked in flavour and
longer shelf life.
