pleurotus djamor, flamingo mushroom

Tropical Strain


Shelf Life 4-5 days from date of harvest once refrigerated unless you buy our  dried pink oysters (six months, cupboard stored)


High in protein, these mushrooms also contain fiber, potassium, copper, riboflavin, vitamin B6, folate and ergothioneine (antioxidant)


This brilliantly coloured oyster mushroom is ideal for sauteing, boiling, slow roasting or frying and due to its succulent meaty texture is a fantastic meat substitute in many dishes.


Add to stir fries, pasta, pilafs, pizza or soups to get that extra umami kick.


Pairs well with coriander, parsley, mint, basil, ginger or mix with cream based white sauces for added flavour. 


Pink oysters require thorough cooking to develop their flavour and texture. (15-20 minutes). Coat them with olive oil or sesame oil and add your favourite herbs and spices. 


Although these oysters lose their pink colour when cooked, this is replaced with golden brown hues.


Our pink oysters are always picked young to ensure the ideal texture and storability

GOLDEN OYSTER

pleurotus citrinopileatus, yellow oyster

Tropical strain


Shelf life 3 days from date of harvest once refrigerated unless you buy our  dried golden oysters (six months, cupboard stored)


Containing copper, zinc, and essential amino acids in varying amounts including folic acid, lovastatin, and carotenoids which also gives this mushroom its vivid yellow color.


This stunningly beautiful mushroom is best suited to stir frying, braising, boiling, or sautéing. Extremely versatile it pairs well with poultry, seafood, steak or excellent in vegan, and vegetarian dishes due to its broad range of flavours and texture. When sautéed in oil these mushrooms have a similar taste to roasted cashew nuts. 


The yellow colour is lost on cooking but turns a golden brown hue.


Aware that these oysters are fragile post-harvest and lower yielding, this mushroom is a delicacy that always sells out quickly.


Our golden oysters are always picked young to ensure the ideal texture.
