The Black Pearl Oyster or Black Pearl King Oyster is a oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) hybrid from Japan. It is the result of a cross between a European and an Asian Pleurotus ostreatus. It grows and looks much like Pleurotus eryngii (King Oyster) in the beginning as it matures it will look more like a Pleurotus ostreatus (Pearl Oyster).
Black Pearl mushrooms are a new hybrid that blends the hearty texture of a King Trumpet oyster, and the growth style of a regular oyster mushrooms. They have an earthy, umami flavor that perfect for a meatless main or as part of another dish. You can use the entire mushroom - the cap and the stem.
They are full of healthy nutrients such as iron, zinc, calcium, folic acid, potassium, phosphorus & selenium + Vitamins C, D, B1, B3, B5 & B12.
All culinary mushrooms must be cooked to release their nutrients. We recommend sautéing or baking.
