Rich • Meaty • Almost Seafood-Like
Lion’s Mane is instantly recognisable by its cascading white spines. When cooked, it develops a rich, savoury flavour often compared to crab or lobster. We love it torn into chunks and pan-fried until golden, where it becomes deeply umami and wonderfully juicy.
Best for: pan-frying, roasting, plant-based “scallops”
Flavour: rich, savoury, slightly sweet
Texture: dense, fibrous, and meaty
