The American oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) is a popular edible fungus known for its delicate texture and mild, savory flavor. Here’s a description of its appearance:

Small view of our Mushroom product

• Cap: Broad, fan-shaped, resembling an oyster shell (hence the name). The cap can range in size from 2 to 30 centimeters (3/4 to 11 3/4 inches) in diameter.
• Color: The cap color can vary from white to gray, tan, or even dark brown.
• Margin: The edge of the cap is inrolled when young and becomes smooth or wavy with maturity. It can also be lobed.
• Gills: White to cream colored gills run down the underside of the cap. These gills are close together and may run down the short stem if present.
• Stem: The stem is short, lateral (growing on the side), or absent altogether. It’s usually off-center and white in color.
•  Flesh: The flesh is white, firm, and has a meaty texture.

It’s important to note that while American oyster mushrooms are generally safe to eat, it’s crucial to properly identify them before consumption.
