This kit contains:
- 40 wooden dowels inoculated with tarragon oyster (Pleurotus euosmus) mycelium- 25g of wax to seal the log once the dowels have been inserted
- detailed instructions for use
*Please Note: This kit includes dowels colonised with your chosen mushroom species. However, you'll need to source a fresh-cut hardwood log (no older than 6 weeks). If you don't have a local tree surgeon, we recommend Hanging Wood. Their sustainably harvested logs come from copparded trees from their managed woodlands in the North Downs, where trees are cut at the stem, leaving the root to regrow new stems every 5–10 years.
The Tarragon Oyster mushroom is a rare species, believed to be found only in the British Isles and not commercially cultivated. This oyster mushroom species is prized for its herbaceous aroma and flavour, which is reminiscent of fresh tarragon, making it a standout variety for culinary use.
This mushroom is usually seen growing in the spring and summer.
Cooking Tips:
With its herby, anise-like flavour and tender texture, the Tarragon Oyster mushroom pairs beautifully with poultry, fish, or creamy pasta dishes. The caps are delicious when pan-fried with butter and thyme, while the stems, when finely chopped, add a savoury depth to soups, risottos, or grain dishes.
