Cultivated Mushroom

O cogumelo-de-paris (Agaricus bisporus), nas suas diferentes fases de crescimento — botão branco, cremini e portobello — é o cogumelo mais cultivado no mundo, representando aproximadamente 40% da produção mundial de cogumelos. Domesticado a partir de espécies silvestres de Agaricus encontradas em pastagens da Europa e da América do Norte, é cultivado comercialmente em ambientes controlados sobre palha e estrume compostados. Rico em vitaminas do complexo B, selênio e fibras alimentares, é um dos fungos nutricionalmente mais versáteis na culinária humana.
