INTRODUCING CANYON CREEK MUSHROOMS

Learn How to Select Mushrooms Like a Chef!

Canyon Creek Mushrooms is new to the Certified Farmers’ Market at Old Town. They offer a wide variety of gourmet mushrooms and can help you select the perfect variety and flavor for your cooking needs!

First, know that Canyon Creek mushrooms are the very definition of fresh. Grown on sterilized hardwood, these mushrooms are often delivered the same day that they are harvested from an indoor cultivation facility. You can depend on Canyon Creek to be a consistent, reliable source for the most delicious, nutritious mushrooms in the Coachella Valley.

Varieties include everything from staples in gourmet kitchens such as Blue Oysters to King Trumpets which are perfect for grilling, roasting, baking and frying. Here are some clues about how to select mushrooms. Since Canyon Creek has more varieties than we can describe, be sure to ask questions at Sunday’s Farmers’ Market!

Snow Oysters are a cousin of Blue Oysters. They’re sweet and hold their shape when cooked. They’re fantastic in omelets, quiches, frittatas and with steaks. 

Black King Oysters are a great meat substitute due to their texture and flavor. Try them marinated or grilled with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Parmesan Cheese.

Chestnut Mushrooms have a mild, earthy flavor with notes of a peppery finish. They’re ideal for cream sauces, miso broths, and stir frying. Season with garlic and cook in oil to add to spring rolls or top a salad.

Whether you’re a restaurant looking for a dependable source of gourmet mushrooms, a produce market looking to add fresh mushrooms to your shelves, or someone who shops Farmers’ Markets and loves eating healthy, give them a try. You’ll love Canyon Creek mushrooms!
