EXCLUSIVE: Select Fungi Frozen Wild Black Trumpet Mushrooms (Craterellus cornucopioides) -- Wild-Harvested, Flash-Frozen for Peak Flavor
flavorsomethe black trumpet -- often called the "poor man's truffle" and one of the most flavorful wild mushrooms you will ever taste. Wild-harvested from pristine Pacific Northwest forests by experienced foragers, our black trumpets are carefully cleaned and flash-frozen within hours of harvest to lock in their extraordinary depth of flavor.
About Black Trumpet Mushrooms:
Black trumpets (Craterellus cornucopioides) are delicate, thin-fleshed wild mushrooms with a striking dark gray to jet-black color and an elegant funnel or trumpet shape. Despite their fragile appearance, they deliver an incredibly rich, complex flavor that is smoky, earthy, and subtly fruity with deep umami notes. Many chefs compare their aroma and taste to black truffles, which is how they earned their famous nickname. Black trumpets grow wild on the forest floor among leaf litter and moss near hardwoods and conifers, making them one of the most prized foraged mushrooms in French, Italian, and American fine dining.
Why Frozen?
Black trumpets have an extremely short fresh shelf life. Flash-freezing at peak harvest preserves their intense flavor, delicate texture, and truffle-like aroma so you can enjoy them year-round. Simply thaw and cook -- no soaking or rehydrating needed. Frozen black trumpets retain their deep color and concentrated flavor beautifully.
Cooking Tips & Recipes:
1. Black Trumpet Cream Sauce: Saute thawed black trumpets in butter for 3-4 minutes. Add minced shallots, a splash of white wine, and heavy cream. Simmer until thickened. Season with salt and white pepper. Spoon over pan-seared salmon, chicken, or scallops for an elegant restaurant-quality dish.
2. Black Trumpet Risotto: Stir sauteed black trumpets into a classic Arborio rice risotto during the last few minutes of cooking. Their dark color creates a stunning contrast. Finish with butter, Parmesan, and a drizzle of truffle oil for an unforgettable dish.
3. Black Trumpet Pasta with Brown Butter: Saute thawed black trumpets in brown butter with fresh sage and garlic. Toss with pappardelle or tagliatelle and finish with shaved Pecorino Romano and a squeeze of lemon. Simple, elegant, and deeply flavorful.
4. Black Trumpet Omelette: Fold sauteed black trumpets, fresh goat cheese, and chives into a French-style omelette. The mushrooms bring a rich, almost truffle-like depth to a simple breakfast.
5. Black Trumpet and Gruyere Tartine: Saute black trumpets in butter with thyme. Spread onto thick slices of toasted sourdough, top with melted Gruyere cheese, and finish under the broiler. A perfect appetizer or light meal.
6. Black Trumpet Compound Butter: Finely chop thawed black trumpets and fold into softened butter with sea salt, cracked pepper, and fresh thyme. Roll into a log and refrigerate. Slice and melt over grilled steak, roasted vegetables, or fresh bread.
Storage: Keep frozen at 0 degrees F (-18 C) or below until ready to use. Best used within 12 months of purchase. Once thawed, store in the refrigerator and cook within 24 hours. Do not refreeze after thawing.
Shipped frozen with insulated packaging and dry ice to ensure your black trumpets arrive in perfect condition.
Available in 1 lb and 3 lb packages.
