Notes

Pink and yellow oyster mushrooms are available at selected farmers' markets, grocery stores and online. Choose mushrooms as described by variety. Avoid slimy looking caps and those that look shrivelled. Store mushrooms as described by variety, otherwise, store in a paper or calico bag in the refrigerator. They generally last for up to 3 days when stored in this way. Prepare by wiping over the mushrooms using a piece of damp paper towel. This removes any grit and prevents them becoming soggy. Dry mushrooms by spreading them out and placing them in a sunny position until completely dry. This may take several days. Store them in an airtight container until ready to use.
