Black Pearl Oyster info
Black Pearl Oyster Mushrooms are a genetic hybrid of King Oyster and Pearl Oyster mushrooms originating from Japan. It is a rare and beautiful variety of oyster mushroom that is characterised by their dark brown to black caps and pearl-white stems. Its Japanese name Shimofuri Hiratake means "marbled oyster" and refers to its attractive speckled caps.
As a hybrid, it displays the best traits of both parent species, producing good yields of dense clusters of large mushrooms with thick stems similar to King Oyster, but with a more tender, texture. Their flavour strikes a perfect balance between sweet and umami, with a touch of earthiness. They are slightly milder than standard blue oysters and readily absorb other flavors.
