Fresh Oyster Mushroom
This extremely versatile mushroom can be substituted any time a recipe calls for white button mushrooms. Its flavor is sweet and mild,
its texture is fragile and soft. Goes very well with stir fry's, sauteing, and braising.
This pale colored mushroom can be found in the wild growing on trees in the fall months. It's fruity and sweet aroma translates
into its dishes and ads a great kick to almost any dish. Oyster mushrooms cook rather quickly and are wonderful in all stir fry dishes

Ingredients
2 pounds asparagus, cut on the diagonal into 1 1/2-inch lengths
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 pounds organic oyster mushrooms, large stems discarded, large
caps halved. OR ¼ pound of dried Pacific Rim oyster mushrooms
reydrated
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 shallot, minced
1/4 cup dry white wine, such as Riesling
1/2 cup chicken stock or canned low-sodium broth
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon minced chives
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped chervil or 1 teaspoon minced tarragon
Directions
In a medium saucepan of boiling salted water, blanch the asparagus until
bright green, about 2 minutes. Drain, refresh in a bowl of ice water;
drain again.
Melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the oyster mushrooms in an even
layer, season with salt and pepper and cook over moderate heat until
browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Stir the mushrooms and cook
until tender, about 4 minutes longer. Add the shallot and cook, stirring,
until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add the wine and cook until
evaporated, about 30 seconds. Add the chicken stock and asparagus and
simmer until the liquid has reduced to 2 tablespoons, about 2 minutes.
Stir in the heavy cream and simmer over low heat until slightly thickened,
about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, stir in the parsley, chives
and chervil, and serve at once.

250g organic pacific rim organic oyster mushrooms

2 cloves garlic (crushed)
1/3 cup or 90mL worcestershire sauce

2 tablespoons of sweet chilli sauce

Add oyster mushrooms, spring onions and 3 tablespoons reserved marinade.
Stir-fry for 2 minutes longer or until seafood is cooked. Note: In general,
the seafood will cook quickly in the wok.
4 Season to taste with black pepper, add garnish and enjoy!
Tip: To honeycomb squids, you simply make a single cut down the length
of the body and then open it out. Using a sharp knife, cut parallel
lines down the length of the squid, taking care not to cut completely
through the flesh. After this, make more cuts in the opposite direction
to form a diamond pattern - honeycombing made easy!
