Ingredient Overview
King trumpet is a culinary oyster mushroom recognised for its thick stem and firm texture. The same species provides the fruiting-body material used in this concentrated mushroom ingredient.
King trumpet is especially recognisable in its fresh form because the substantial stem is a prominent part of the mushroom. Extraction changes the focus from culinary texture to fungal constituents such as beta-glucans. It offers a distinct species choice for formulations that feature individual edible mushrooms rather than an unspecified mushroom blend.
