It was born on a dead elm tree, commonly known as a litter of sheep that used to be poisonous and now hard to buy with money.

It is said that farmers depend on heaven for food, and it is up to God to arrange when to plough in spring and when to harvest rice. Adults look forward to more rain at the beginning of spring and plant seedlings when there is enough water in the rice fields. In summer, they can't wait for a few days of sunshine to clean up the corn and rice.

But we children often think about the rain, especially when we are greedy. When the rain clears up, delicious cravings can be found everywhere in the woods, on the hillsides and in the ditches. Lobster and Loach are our favorites, not to mention fungus and wild mushrooms, everyone is scrambling to find them.

Speaking of mushrooms, I still remember the beautiful wild yellow mushrooms that grow on withered trees, especially conspicuous on the dead and decaying elm roots every time.

But adults say that the more beautiful a wild animal is, the more poisonous it is, so although we can see a lot every time, we all acquiesce that it is as inedible as the red red mushroom. We either glance or step on it. Sometimes we smash them with sticks.

Later, when I saw this kind of wild yellow mushroom introduced by experts on TV, I learned that it was originally called Pleurotus ostreatus, commonly known as "a litter of sheep." it is a precious wild fungus with great nutritional value. when I think about it now, it was really a wild thing when I was a child.

Pleurotus ostreatus does not grow independently, but is born together by many small yellow mushrooms. When it first grew, it was only half of its thumb long and yellowish. About two days later, it turned into a bright yellow, especially beautiful clusters. From a distance, it looked like a dead elm tree was blooming again. Its umbrella feels slippery, tastes tender and refreshing, and tastes excellent.

In autumn, elm yellow mushrooms grow best. Farmers always happen to meet one or two clusters when they do farm work. If they are less, they will take them home and stew them with pig feet, and if there are more, they will sell them on the market. Pleurotus ostreatus is the most suitable for the elderly to eat, crisp and delicate bite without losing teeth, nourishing the kidney and prolonging life, it is not only a difficult natural delicacy, but also a traditional Chinese medicine fungus for health care.

Now everyone knows the value of Yuhuang mushrooms, and more and more people are picking them. There are hardly many wild elm yellow mushrooms on the slope, so it is difficult to buy pure natural wild ones with money. And Pleurotus ostreatus is not only popular at home, but also popular abroad.

In recent years, the export volume of Pleurotus ostreatus is increasing, and many farmers have changed their idle bungalows into mushroom sheds, or dug more than a dozen trenches for artificial cultivation. In rural areas, for such hot high-end exports, it is worthwhile for farmers to spend money on building a few plastic sheds and buying a few sets of equipment.

Dear friends, have you ever seen this kind of yellow mushroom in the countryside?
