BLACK TRUMPET

BLTRUMP-1

Description:

Black Trumpet Mushrooms are distinctively aromatic and have an elegant buttery flavor that will compliment any recipe. The Black Trumpet is also known as the "horn of plenty". Fragrant and abundant, it is valued in French cuisine because of its unique flavor and texture. Black Trumpets are found in mixed deciduous woods, mostly under Oak or Beech trees on the ground during summer and fall. This fragile distinctly trumpet-shaped mushroom has a thin and waxy charcoal-gray outer surface while the inside is a velvety dark brown or almost black color. The size can range from 2 to 5 inches high.

Black Trumpets add a delicious level of complexity to any meal. Black Trumpets work well as a flavoring ingredient in sauces, omelets, stir-fry, soups and pasta dishes. They mix well with onions, green beans, tomatoes, fresh herbs, cheese and meats. Delicious in vegetarian cooking with grains and rice dishes.
