King oyster mushroom is the largest species in the oyster mushroom genus. It has a thick, meaty white stem and a small tan cap with a wonderful nutty flavor and a resilient firm texture. Unlike many mushrooms, the stem has the same superb flavor and porcini-like texture as the cap - nothing is wasted. Different aspects of its subtle, aromatic flavor will emerge depending on the style of preparation. King oyster mushroom can be sautéed, grilled, braised, stewed or broiled, and its savory richness is emphasized by high-heat cooking. Slice the stem thickly to make tender medallions perfect for searing and reminiscent of scallops. Sauté these mushrooms with butter, grill or roast with olive oil and complement with cream, walnut, sherry, parmesan, rosemary or balsamic. King oyster mushroom likes to grow below 70 degrees Fahrenheit; 62 - 67 degrees Fahrenheit is optimal. You will not be disappointed by choosing to grow King Oyster! The mushrooms you grow at home will be much more delicious than the ones you can buy from the grocery store. It is also full of fun to watch them growing, as they grow large and relatively fast. You may place the kit on a coffee table, counter, or desk - it will produce mushrooms virtually anywhere in your home or office with enough light and room temperature (50°F~75°F). Now you have the opportunity not only to enjoy watching these exotic mushrooms growing but also to enjoy eating the freshest mushrooms possible.
