The White
mushroom is the most widely cultivated and consumed mushroom
in the world. White mushrooms range in color from creamy
white to light brown. The cap fleshy and can range in size from 1 to
4 inches (2.5 to 10cm) across. The tender stem is 3/4-inch to 2 inches
(1.9 to 5cm) long. White mushrooms have a mild, woodsy
flavor that intensifies with cooking.
Varieties
White mushrooms with small caps are sometimes referred
to as “button” mushrooms, while mushrooms with large caps
are called “jumbo.”
Mushrooms belong
to the inferior vegetable field (they do not have trunks, roots or leaves).
They can not be planted in ordinary soil even if it has been fertilized.
There are more than 100,000 meaty mushrooms -- approximately one-hundred
are edible and tasty. The White mushrooms that we commercialize
are the "Agaricus Bisporus" type. They have a delicious flavor
and meaty texture -- perfect for your cooking needs!
