Lion's Mane — Hericium erinaceus

Lion's mane is a distinctive variety known for its fluffy, white, cascading appearance, resembling a lion's mane. The flesh is delicate and slightly sweet, with a tender, fibrous texture often compared to crab or lobster meat — making it a striking centerpiece in gourmet cooking.

In restaurant kitchens, lion's mane is most commonly pan-seared, sautéed, or grilled, and shredded into crab-cake-style preparations or vegetarian "steaks". Its ability to absorb flavor makes it ideal for infusion with herbs, garlic, and butter, and it adds substance to soups, cream sauces, pasta, and risotto.

Origin: Locally grown in Sweden by Nelumbo Labs AB Storage: Refrigerate at 2–4 °C. Best consumed within 5–7 days of delivery. Note: Mushrooms may cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.
