Named for their oyster-shell shape, Gray Oyster mushrooms have petal-shaped caps with ivory white stems and smooth, convex caps with a slight wave. The flesh is white and can be thin or thick depending on size, and texture has a meaty and melting quality. Grey Oyster mushrooms have a slightly chewy texture and are soft with a bittersweet aroma reminiscent of anise.

The Oyster mushroom is considered a delicacy in Japanese, Korean and Chinese cookery. When cooked, they have a mild and nutty, seafood-like flavor. They can be sliced and pan fried until crispy for a delicious appetizer, or sautéed in butter with salt and pepper for a nutritious side dish, or included in a casserole, soup or stew. Note it is important to dehydrate the Oyster mushroom before adding spices by heating in a pan or in an oven at 350°F for 40 minutes, turning once.
Oyster mushrooms are high in protein, almost equivalent to that of animal proteins, and high in antioxidants due to a beta-glucan compound which helps in strengthening the immune system by fighting abnormal cells. Studies have shown that Oyster mushrooms have antitumor, antifungal, and cholesterol-lowering properties and are one of the best plant sources of vitamin D.
