cì qín gū (lit. "stab celery mushroom"), or
cì qín cè ěr (lit. "stab celery side ear"). In

Pleurotus ostreatus. It has a thick, meaty white stem and a small tan cap (in young specimens). It has little flavor or aroma, and when cooked its texture is similar to that of
abalone.
The mushroom has a good shelf life. It was introduced to Japan around 1993 and has become popular there,

Australia.
Its species name is derived from the fact that it grows in association with the roots of
Eryngium campestre or other
Eryngium plants (English names: 'Sea Holly' or 'Eryngo').
