Oysters

The light rains we've had recently have caused the dormant mushrooms of the forest to start to show themselves. Several fallen Beech have clumps of fresh Pleurotus ostreatus, Oyster mushrooms on them. Oysters can be found throughout most of the year, except when it's frosty and make a fine addition to many recipes or on their own. I had these for breakfast, lightly fried in butter on toast rubbed with garlic, nice.
