Grow your own mushrooms! The Golden Oyster (Pleurotus citrinopileatus) are a gourmet mushroom native to the woodlands of northern Asia. Tamogitake to the Japanese or iI'mak in Siberia, they are one of the most sought after and eaten wild mushrooms in those parts. They have mild flavours and aromas and can be lightly fruity and/or nutty. Our hardwood fruiting blocks are innoculated and allowed to partially myceliate prior to shipping. Watch as the mycelium cultivate your block, then slice open the wrap to allow the mushrooms to grow. Pick and eat as they develop. Delicious, succulent, and perfectly fresh.
