ABOUT
The Black Pearl Oyster mushroom is a hybrid from Japan. A cross between a European and Asian Pleurotus ostreatus. It begins looking very similar to the King Oyster and then matures to look more like the Pearl Oyster. They are easier to grow than the King Oyster. It has big meaty stems that are like the King Oyster but softer. It has a sweet and woodsy flavour that goes good in pastas, stir fries, and pad thais. It is a great ingredient for adding umami flavour to a dish.
