Grey Oyster Mushroom

Pleurotus ostreatus

€4.50

per 200g punnet

Our grey oyster mushrooms are the workhorse of our farm and a favourite among both home cooks and professional chefs. They grow in elegant rosette clusters, with each cap displaying a silky grey-blue colour that deepens in cooler months. The flavour is delicate and subtly sweet, with a velvety texture that absorbs sauces beautifully. Grey oysters are remarkably versatile and can be sauteed, grilled, battered, added to soups, or used as a meat substitute in many dishes. They cook down quickly, so we recommend high heat and a generous amount of butter or olive oil for the best caramelisation.

  • Rich in B vitamins (niacin, riboflavin)

rich brown shiitake mushrooms with distinctive cracked cap pattern growing on hardwood sawdust blocks under warm ambient lighting
Best Seller Year-Round

Shiitake

Lentinula edodes

€5.50

per 150g punnet

Shiitake mushrooms have been cultivated in East Asia for over a thousand years, and for good reason. They deliver an extraordinary depth of umami flavour that enriches virtually any dish. We grow ours on supplemented hardwood sawdust blocks, allowing a longer colonisation period that produces thick, meaty caps with a rich, earthy aroma. The caps are firm with a slightly chewy texture when cooked, while the stems are tougher and best reserved for making stock or dashi broth. Shiitake are equally at home in a Japanese miso soup, an Italian pasta, or a hearty Irish stew. They are among the most researched mushrooms in the world, with studies highlighting their beta-glucan content, which supports healthy immune function.

Nutritional Highlights

  • Excellent source of lentinan (beta-glucan)
  • High in copper and selenium
  • Contains all essential amino acids
  • Natural source of vitamin D (when sun-exposed)
  • 34 kcal per 100g

Best Used In

  • Miso soup and ramen broths
  • Stir-fries with garlic and soy
  • Mushroom duxelles and pate
  • Stews and braised dishes
  • Dried for intense flavour concentrates
Shelf life: 10-14 days refrigerated

stunning white lion's mane mushroom with long cascading spines resembling a waterfall growing on supplemented hardwood block
Specialty Year-Round

Lion's Mane

Hericium erinaceus

€7.00

per 150g punnet

Lion's mane is perhaps the most visually striking mushroom in our collection. It grows as a single, globe-shaped mass covered in long, cascading white spines that resemble a lion's mane or a frozen waterfall. Beyond its dramatic appearance, lion's mane delivers a remarkably seafood-like flavour, often compared to lobster or crab meat. When sliced thick and seared in browned butter, it develops a golden crust with a tender, slightly springy interior. This mushroom has gained significant attention from researchers studying compounds called hericenones and erinacines, which are being explored for their potential to support nerve growth factor production and cognitive health. We grow our lion's mane on supplemented hardwood blocks in carefully controlled conditions that encourage dense, well-formed specimens.

Nutritional Highlights

  • Contains hericenones and erinacines
  • Rich in beta-glucan polysaccharides
  • Good source of potassium and zinc
  • Contains antioxidant compounds
  • 35 kcal per 100g

Best Used In

  • Pan-seared steaks with butter
  • Seafood-style crab cakes (plant-based)
  • Cream sauces and chowders
  • Tacos and sliders
  • Dried and powdered for teas

tall elegant king oyster mushrooms with thick white stems and small flat brown caps arranged on dark substrate in moody lighting
Chef Favourite Year-Round

King Oyster

Pleurotus eryngii

€5.00

per 200g punnet

The king oyster is the largest species in the Pleurotus family and one of the most exciting mushrooms for creative cooks. Unlike its grey oyster cousin, the king oyster produces a thick, meaty stem topped by a relatively small, flat cap. The stem is where the magic lies: when sliced crosswise into thick medallions, the rounds resemble scallops and develop a gorgeous golden sear with a satisfying bite. The flavour is mild and slightly earthy, with a savoury quality that intensifies with caramelisation. King oysters hold their shape exceptionally well through cooking, making them ideal for grilling, roasting, and braising. They have become a cornerstone ingredient in plant-based cuisine worldwide, prized for their ability to mimic the texture and appearance of seafood and white meats.

Nutritional Highlights

  • High in dietary fibre
  • Good source of protein (3.3g per 100g)
  • Rich in niacin and pantothenic acid
  • Contains ergothioneine antioxidant
  • 35 kcal per 100g

Best Used In

  • Seared "scallops" with herb butter
  • Grilled whole or in thick slices
  • Pulled and shredded for tacos
  • Roasted with balsamic glaze
  • Braised in red wine sauce
Shelf life: 10-14 days refrigerated

vivid coral-pink oyster mushroom clusters with ruffled fan-shaped caps growing from straw substrate bags in warm humidity
Seasonal June - September

Pink Oyster

Pleurotus djamor

€5.50

per 150g punnet

The pink oyster is a tropical species that we cultivate during the warmer Irish summer months when ambient temperatures in our growing rooms naturally reach the 24-28 degree range this mushroom prefers. The result is a visually spectacular mushroom with vivid coral-pink caps that cascade in overlapping clusters. The colour fades to a warm golden hue during cooking, but the flavour only intensifies. Many describe the taste as reminiscent of bacon or ham, with a slightly smoky, savoury quality and a pleasantly firm texture. Pink oysters cook quickly and pair beautifully with eggs, in sandwiches, or as a striking garnish on salads and grain bowls. Their dramatic appearance makes them a favourite at farmers markets and with food photographers. Because they are a seasonal product for us, availability is limited, and we recommend pre-ordering to ensure you receive your preferred quantity.

Nutritional Highlights

  • High in protein for a mushroom variety
  • Contains lovastatin compounds
  • Good source of folate and niacin
  • Rich in potassium and phosphorus
  • 37 kcal per 100g

Best Used In

  • Plant-based "bacon" strips
  • Breakfast fry-ups and omelettes
  • Sandwiches and wraps
  • Colourful salad topping (raw or seared)
  • Quick sauteed side dishes

clusters of small round brown chestnut mushrooms with firm caps and short stems growing on composted substrate blocks
Everyday Year-Round

Chestnut Mushroom

Agaricus bisporus (brown strain)

€3.50

per 250g punnet

The humble chestnut mushroom is often overlooked in favour of more exotic varieties, but we believe it deserves its place among the finest. Chestnuts are a brown strain of Agaricus bisporus, the same species as the common white button mushroom, but with a deeper, nuttier flavour and firmer texture that holds up better during cooking. We grow ours on a carefully prepared blend of composted wheat straw and peat, enriched with gypsum and organic supplements. The result is a mushroom with a dense, satisfying bite and a rich, earthy taste. Chestnut mushrooms are the ideal everyday cooking mushroom: perfect sliced raw in salads, sauteed as a side, stirred into pies and casseroles, or threaded onto skewers for the barbecue. Their affordability and versatility make them the most popular variety by volume on our farm.

Nutritional Highlights

  • Good source of selenium
  • Rich in B vitamins (especially B5)
  • Contains copper and phosphorus
  • Dietary fibre supports gut health
  • 22 kcal per 100g

Best Used In

  • Full Irish breakfast fry-up
  • Chicken and mushroom pie
  • Cream of mushroom soup
  • Salads (raw, sliced thin)
  • Barbecue skewers and kebabs

Care & Storage

How to Store Your 🧊 Mushrooms

Fresh mushrooms are a living product and continue to respire even after harvest. Proper storage makes a significant difference in how long they stay fresh and how well they perform in the kitchen. Follow these straightforward guidelines to get the most from your Tarivoxa mushrooms.

Refrigerate Immediately

Place mushrooms in the main compartment of your fridge at 2-4 degrees Celsius as soon as they arrive. Avoid the crisper drawer, which tends to be too humid for mushrooms and accelerates spoilage.

Keep in a Paper Bag

If you remove mushrooms from their original packaging, store them in a brown paper bag. Paper allows moisture to escape while preventing drying out. Avoid sealed plastic bags or containers, which trap moisture and encourage bacterial growth.

Do Not Wash Until Cooking

Resist the urge to wash mushrooms before storing. Water accelerates breakdown. Instead, wipe them clean with a dry brush or damp cloth just before cooking. If you must rinse, do so briefly and pat dry immediately.

Freezing for Long-Term Storage

To freeze mushrooms, first saute them in a little oil or butter until just cooked through. Allow them to cool completely, then spread on a baking tray and freeze flat. Once solid, transfer to a freezer bag. They will keep well for up to six months.
