The robust, bold and beautiful King Trumpet mushroom offers a far superior flavor & texture and has no equal when compared to all the other species of "oyster" mushrooms. Unlike other cultivated species of related oyster mushrooms, the stem of the King is as flavorful as the cap and is not tough or stringy. The stout form and firm, thick flesh of this versatile mushroom has made it a favorite of connoisseur chefs. It has a mild, appealing fragrance and flavor and can be sauteed, stir-fried, deep-fried, baked, grilled or steamed. The King Trumpet is wonderful in soups and stews. It is excellent in pasta sauces.
Due to their firm texture and stout form, King Trumpet mushrooms store and ship well. The mushroom can grow to a very large size, but is generally harvested when about 4 to 7 inches tall.
