These were for sale at the Oriental market yesterday.
I bought some, but I know what Oyster mushrooms look like,
and these are NOT them!

What are they and how should I prepare them?
Since they are mostly stem, I'm dubious about how good they will be...

Thanks!

Well the label says "Oyster Mushrooms Large" and I'm not sure if they are
exactly what it's labeled. They're huge, whatever they are. I'd clean 'em
up, cut the mushroom cap off and do a nice saute' of the mushroom caps.
I'd save the stems and put them through a food processor and make mushroom
soup.

Those are giant circumcised penis mushrooms. Heat them up slowly or
they will explode.

Oh, heck. There was something like this on Iron Chef America last night
Flay vs. ?? Alton Brown didn't know what it was and I think the challenger
said it was from the Pacific NW. Sorry, I was falling asleep at the time
(IC comes on here at midnight).

That's why I bought them. ;-)

Thinking about slicing them lengthwise, marinating and grilling.

(also known as King Oyster mushrooms, so the label isn't that far off
if that's what you've got!)

They are NOT oysters...... ;-)
And the cashiers had no 'clu either.

Soup sounds like a good idea!

Well, I did post this to alt.nature.mushrooms so I'm sure they can tell
me!

If not, I'll e-mail Stammetts people at fungiperfecti.com and beg them
for an ID.

They get so many e-mails, I hate to bug them!

Cute! Haven't I seen them in cartoons?

I googled images and they look suspiciously like cepe or porchini
mushrooms.... so they could be from that family.

Also there is a mushroom called Beech (Hypsyzygus tessulatus):

I guess the only way to know for sure is to ask at the store or send
the photo to a mycological society for identification. Report back if
you ever figure it out!

Practice safe eating. Always use condiments.

I concur... Nathan on another list pointed towards the same thing.

Thank you!

King Oysters. Turns out they were not mislabelled, just not what I'm
used to. Should be tasty!

Danke for the links... <hugs>
