Black Pearl Oysters (150g)
Black Pearl Oyster Mushrooms 🖤🍄
Dark, meaty and ridiculously good.
Black Pearl Oysters are a hybrid oyster mushroom with the best bits of oyster and king oyster mushrooms rolled into one gloriously chunky package. They develop deep, dark caps and thick, substantial stems with a rich, savoury flavour and wonderfully meaty texture.
And don't throw those stems away. The stalks are every bit as good as the caps. Slice them into rounds, sear them hard and you've got something with a surprisingly scallop-like texture. Yes, mushrooms can cosplay as seafood. 🐚
Black Pearls are fantastic pan-fried, roasted or grilled and work brilliantly in burgers, ramen, pasta, stir-fries and anything that needs a serious hit of umami.
For maximum flavour, cook them over a reasonably high heat until beautifully browned and caramelised. A little garlic, butter or oil, salt and pepper is often all they need.
Grown in small batches here at Undercliff Shroomery on the Isle of Wight.
