Blue Oyster Mushrooms
Local Blue Oyster Mushrooms. These are a versatile treat to add to any dish.
Beautiful & Versatile
Blue Oyster mushrooms appear dramatically raw with their blue-gray caps, and they turn soft gray when they’re cooked. They’re mild, slightly earthy, and have a firm bite that stands up to an’re. They’re ideal for pasta, risotto, or sautéed with garlic and olive oil. Check out this “vegan fried chicken” recipe, which gives a hearty, crispy-fried goodness to these non-mushy mycelium-based dishes.
Why Cooks Love Blue Oysters
These mushrooms love the spotlight — their sturdy texture means you can cook them hot and fast without them turning mushy. They absorb seasonings like a dream and pair well with almost any savory dish.
