Abstract

A mushroom fungus belonging to the order of Agaricales, is cultured with good efficiency by using a liquid culture medium in such a way as to prepare the mycelia separated from the culture medium such that the culturing liquid can be served for food use. A liquid culture medium containing 3 to 16 g/liter of sucrose and 1 to 6 g/liter of maltose as a carbon source and 0.3 to 1.2 g/liter of yeast extract as a nitrogen source is inoculated with Agaricus mycelia and culturing is conducted by blowing into the culture medium sterilized air of 20 to 90% of the oxygen concentration.
