Pink Oyster Mushroom

description Pink Oyster Mushroom Overview

The pink oyster mushroom is the tropical oyster species Pleurotus djamor, cultivated for its pink to salmon-colored fruiting bodies and clustered oyster-like caps. It is used as an edible mushroom, but it should be cooked before consumption because raw oyster mushrooms can cause digestive problems. The species grows on woody or plant-based substrates and is more commonly encountered through cultivation than in ordinary grocery stores.
