I (heart) Back to the Roots

Saturday, June 2, 2012 19:30

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Last month, I wrote about how I bought a Back to the Roots mushroom kit. I followed the instructions exactly. At first I opened the front of the box and made slits into the plastic bag and misted it with the enclosed water sprayer 3 times a day. I did this for a few weeks and nothing happened. Therefore, I decided to dunk the entire bag of the oyster mushroom spore into water for 24 hours as the instructions read, and literally 5 days later…. Voila! The beginning of baby mushrooms! I think I actually jumped for joy. Haha

Then it was Memorial day weekend and I was away for 2 days and when I returned, holy cow. Look what formed in 2 days time! Wowsers!

Here is a side by side so you can see how incredible this is. A before and after.

I had to take pictures from every angle just so you can see how amazing this product is!

Doesn’t this look just amazing? I have to say, the mushrooms don’t look exactly like the photos shown on the Back to the Roots website. These are totally giant!!

Like, Oh My God, just wow! I can’t get over it. I’ve always wanted to grow mushrooms and this is way too much fun! (Man, that didn’t sound as nerdy in my head.)

On the Back to the Roots website they say, you can potentially get 3 harvests from the same box. Awesome!

I couldn’t resist, I had to cut the big oyster mushroom off and cook this bad boy. I love love mushrooms, so this is surely a treat! To give you a sense of scale, here is the large mushroom in my hand. Ginormous, right?

I sliced it up with a leek from the garden.

And sauteed it with some olive oil. Then scrambled an egg into it.

And ate the whole thing between two slices of toasted multigrain bread. Sooooooo yummy!

I can’t wait to try growing another harvest of these shrooms. Yes, please!
