Our Toadstool Business is Mushrooming

 Leena asked if we could grow mushrooms again.

But, of course!

The thing about mushrooms is that they double in size each day until maturity.

We had the kit for about a week before the shrooms were ready to harvest.  The last four days are pictured!



And they were very tasty in a beef cashew stir fry!

These are pearl oyster mushrooms from this kit.  

We've tried a few kits over the years, but the ones from Fungi Perfecti seem to be the best.  Also, I think pearl oyster mushrooms are the best tasting mushrooms in the world, so we keep growing that one strain!

We are hoping they bloom again!
