Chicken of the Woods Liquid Culture Syringe (10cc)
Laetiporus spp. – Vibrant Tiered Wood-Lover
This iconic mushroom earns its name from the firm, meaty texture and flavor that many describe as reminiscent of chicken—or for some, lobster or crab. Chicken of the Woods grows in brightly colored, overlapping tiers and is a popular wild gourmet find now available in isolated liquid culture form.
Why Grow Chicken of the Woods?
This eye-catching fungus ranges from sulfur-yellow to vivid orange and forms large, shelf-like clusters on hardwood substrates. Its unique layered growth makes it one of the easiest mushrooms to identify in nature—and one of the most rewarding to grow at home.
Beyond its bold taste and texture, Chicken of the Woods is highly valued for its protein content and culinary versatility. When harvested young and tender, it’s ideal for pan-frying, grilling, or sautéing as a vegetarian meat substitute.
