Lobster mushrooms are beloved for their dense texture and nutty, sweet smell reminiscent of steamed lobster.
They are found in the autumn in New England and on the West Coast, usually from late summer through
October. We recommend lobster mushrooms anywhere a subtle taste of the sea is desired, as they can add rich
crustacean-like flavor to vegan, vegetarian, and meat-based dishes. And, because lobster mushrooms are mild
tasting, they pair well with other mushrooms, too.
