Description/Taste
Phoenix Tail oyster mushrooms are medium to large in size with caps averaging 5-20 centimeters in diameter and are found in shelf-like clusters of five to six mushrooms. The smooth, thick caps are semi-circular or fan-shaped and range in color from white-beige to pale tan with lilac or gray tones. The cap is also finely lined and has wavy and undulating edges when mature. Underneath the cap, there are many soft, short, white gills closely aligned to one another and the short, ivory stem averages 1-7 centimeters in length. Phoenix Tail oyster mushrooms have a distinct aroma with seafood undertones and are velvety and tender with a mild, faintly sweet flavor.
