About Oyster Mushroom
A common fresh edible mushroom with fan-shaped caps and offset stems - cheap, plentiful and great for stir-fries and soups.
Health Benefits of Oyster Mushroom
The best-value everyday mushroom
Oyster mushroom holds ~1.9g protein and only 20 kcal per 100g. Hardy, fast-growing and high-yielding, it is one of the most affordable fresh mushrooms. Its firm flesh stir-fries well without shrivelling - a plate of sautéed oyster mushroom (~250g) is only ~50 kcal yet filling, a staple for weight management.
Quick home dishes
Tearing and fast-stir-frying is the classic: oyster mushroom scrambled egg (a 3-minute dish), stir-fried with pork slices (absorbs the savoury meat juice), or in a light tofu soup. No blanching needed - just tear and toss, finer shreds absorb flavour better. It also fries into 'salt-and-pepper mushroom': light batter fried golden and crisp, a kids' favourite.
