Chicken of the woods grows in large, overlapping brackets. It has a soft flesh with a yellow to orange surface, sometimes with bright orange tips and yellow pores. As it ages, the color becomes pale and mildly pungent. It is a parasitic mushroom showing a preference for oak but can grow on other hardwoods, causing brown rot. It can be used as a chicken substitute and prepared as such. In addition, it retains edibility when frozen, even for long periods of time. So if you can’t eat all of your yield, you can easily save it for a rainy day!
