Ingredients for Vegan pennywort salad with oyster mushrooms Serves 3

How to choose good oyster mushrooms
- Choose mushrooms that have a firm stem; the caps should be large, can be gray or white (depending on the type) but should not be too torn; the top of the mushroom is slightly concave and underneath the cap, there are thin fibers.
- Preferably choose oyster mushrooms that grow in clusters, are fresh and have the characteristic mushroom smell.
- For stir-fried dishes, you should choose brown oyster mushrooms because they will be crispier, chewier, and sweeter than white oyster mushrooms, which are suitable for porridge and hot pot dishes.
