The Black Pearl Oyster or Black Pearl King Oyster is a oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) hybrid from Japan. It is the result of a cross between a European and an Asian Pleurotus ostreatus. It grows and looks much like Pleurotus eryngii (King Oyster) in the beginning as it matures it will look more like a Pleurotus ostreatus (Pearl Oyster). Black Pearl Kings are less finicky than Pleurotus eryngii, and are able to grow very well indoors. It is a fast substrate colonizer that fruits dense, meaty mushrooms. The mushrooms have large edible stems similar to an oyster mushroom yet slightly softer. The unique flavor and peppery aftertaste of Black Pearl mushrooms means they can hold their own when cooked in soups and chili. They are a wonderful addition to pasta as well. The creative culinary possibilities with this mushroom are endless!

Fruiting Conditions:

Temperature: 15 – 20’C

Humidity: 90-95%
