The mushrooms in the picture share their name with which type of shellfish?

“First cultivated in Germany … “ What does this mean? That the Germans were the first people in the world to cultivate them? The oyster mushroom is widespread in many temperate and subtropical forests throughout the world, and are commonly used in Asian cuisines.

Absolutely delicious sautéed in butter!

"Cultivated" means that the people started growing the mushrooms on purpose in beds (or whatever), as opposed to simply gathering wild-growing mushrooms.

GlamGenie, Love mushrooms in smoothies!

I can't wait to try mushrooms as a replacement for meat
