(Mushrooms, Blue Oyster) Blue oyster mushroom clusters start out with deep blue
coloring and eventually turn grey as they age, which explains the color in this
photo. Oyster mushrooms have a subtle seafood flavor with hints of anise and a
faint, earthy taste. Cooked oyster mushrooms bring a soft, meaty texture to
soups, stir-frys, and salad recipes. They're a good source of protein, and
they're also high in fiber and vitamin B. The literature also says that Blue
Oyster mushrooms are a good source of vitamin D to balance phosphate and calcium
levels in the body to strengthen bones and teeth, vitamin A to maintain optimal
organ functioning, and other amounts of iron, copper, and riboflavin. In
addition to vitamins and minerals, Blue Oyster mushrooms contain chitin, a
polymer that promotes healthy digestive bacteria and antioxidant properties to
reduce oxidative stress.

The above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
