Description
The Mushroom Kit – Gold Oyster is an easy, beginner-friendly way to grow gourmet mushrooms right in your own kitchen. This USDA-certified organic kit is simple to set up—just open the front of the box, cut an “X” in the plastic, and spray with water 2-3 times daily. In just days, you’ll start to see your golden oyster mushrooms grow, bringing the joy of mushroom cultivation to your countertop.
Golden oyster mushrooms are known for their delicate texture, mild flavor, and unique hint of nuttiness, reminiscent of cashews. This aromatic variety has become a favorite among chefs for its versatility, pairing wonderfully with pasta, risottos, stir-fries, and more. These mushrooms are also fantastic when panko-fried, adding a crispy, satisfying bite to dishes. For an extra-special touch, try incorporating them into warm soups, frittatas, quiches, tacos, or creamy sauces.
This kit tend to produce large, vibrant flushes of bright yellow to deep golden mushrooms when kept in adequate humidity. With proper care, you can enjoy multiple harvests from one kit, ensuring a steady supply of fresh, homegrown mushrooms. While the first flush of mushrooms is fully guaranteed, these kits are known for their ability to yield two or even three flushes with continued attention and misting.
Golden oysters thrive in humid environments, so placing your kit in a humid area or using a humidity tent can help maximize your mushroom growth. The bright color and delightful aroma of these mushrooms make them a striking addition to any meal, bringing both flavor and visual appeal to your plate.
Your kit arrives with an amended sawdust block colonized by mycelium, the natural fungal network responsible for mushroom growth. This may appear as a soft, white coating on the surface—don’t worry, that’s just the healthy mycelium at work. Enjoy cultivating these beautiful mushrooms and adding a splash of golden flavor to your favorite recipes!
