How to choose delicious oyster mushrooms
- Oyster mushrooms with long, large, and firm stems are usually sweeter than those with small stems.
- Old mushrooms that are often stored at cold temperatures usually have blackened or bruised caps.
- Touch the mushrooms; if they feel firm and smooth, buy them, but if they feel slimy, it’s best not to purchase.
Tips for choosing shiitake mushrooms:
- Freshly harvested mushrooms usually have vibrant colors and a distinctive aroma. Avoid mushrooms that are bruised or have a rotten smell, as they may be spoiled.
- Dark brown shiitake mushrooms that ooze milky white substance at the cut should not be purchased as this is a sign of toxic mushrooms.
- Avoid mushrooms that are wrinkled at the tip, have dark spots, or are slimy.
- Choose mushrooms with firm stems, uniform color, and prefer those with medium-sized caps that are tightly curled and slightly yellow-brown.
