Blue Oyster Mushroom

Blue Oyster Mushrooms, Pleurotus ostreatus, is one of the most popular edible fungi. Its mild, umami-rich flavor and velvety texture make it versatile for sautéing, roasting, or adding to soups and pasta. It is also used in meat substitutes due to its firm texture.

Oyster mushrooms are packed with nutrients like B vitamins, vitamin D, and minerals such as potassium and iron.

Antioxidant properties further enhance their medicinal value, potentially reducing inflammation and protecting against chronic diseases.
