Beefsteak Polypore – (Fistulina hepatica)

Beefsteak mushrooms are now cultivated in Europe on a small scale indoors, we are offering this hard to find clone on plugs so you can grow your own outdoors! The Beefsteak is a beautiful, juicy polypore that resembles fresh cut steak when sliced. Marbled and meaty, it has a lemony, tangy flavor that can be grilled, pickled, or dehydrated and made into Beefsteak Jerky! A weak parasite of oak trees, this one is safe to cultivate since it only attacks trees that are injured or falling ill.
