This mushroom has a meat-like taste and tender texture when cooked. Their stems are slightly chewy yet succulent. They act as a great meat alternative for vegetarians and vegans. They have a distinct blue-grey hue to them.
We aim to have all our packs ready to dispatch whenever there is an order, but because there is a live mycelium included sometimes dispatch may take longer. We will get in touch if this is the case.
Important Note: This kit includes a live, growing mycelium. Please open the pack as soon as possible, otherwise store the grain spawn inside a fridge at 2 °C.
