Oysters

Yellow Oyster

Pleurotus citrinopileatus
WX005
Excellent yield

Vivid golden-yellow clusters that are as beautiful as they are tasty. Delicate, slightly floral flavour. Best eaten very fresh — cooks in seconds and wilts quickly.

One of the most visually striking mushrooms we grow. The golden-yellow fronds fan out in dense clusters and have a delicate, almost floral aroma when fresh. The flavour is mild and slightly sweet — quite different from grey oyster. The catch: yellow oyster has an extremely short shelf life and caps start to break off within a day or two of harvest — still delicious, but less presentable. Cook them quickly over high heat.
