A striking hybrid of the king oyster and oyster mushroom, Shimofuri mushrooms—also known as Black Pearl King Oyster—offer the best of both worlds: a rich, savoury depth of flavour and a tender, meaty texture.

With their velvety speckled grey-brown to black caps and thick, juicy stems, they shine in a wide range of dishes, from simple sautés to hearty braises.

Their robust umami profile and satisfying bite make them a favourite among chefs seeking a plant-based centrepiece with elegance and substance.

Add to your culinary creations with Shimofuri mushrooms—an exceptional ingredient that brings unmatched depth and umami to any dish. Try them today and see how they transform your menu.
