King Oyster Mushroom - Eryngii
I don't know why that I have a special feeling about mushrooms. They are so beautiful and delicates, comes with so many varieties and flavors. The other day I bought 2 packs ($6) of King Oyster Mushroom in Korean supermarket. It is interesting to find out that mushroom is also grown in part of Asia. But I never had it when I was a child.
It has many other names, check out the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleurotus_eryngii
The entire king oyster mushroom is edible. I cooked it with butter and white wine, some salt and fresh grounded black pepper. It is meaty and has a chewy texture. Of course the butter gave the mushroom a lot of flavors. I find another receipt on the net, which I will try next time.

There is interesting video on YouTube about a Korean female entrepreneur growing King Oyster Mushroom in Korean. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cX3RpD1M4EA
I have a dream of growing my mushrooms, but after watching that video, I think I am giving up.
