About our Chestnut Mushrooms

Chestnut mushrooms, also known as brown cap or cremini mushrooms, are a popular variety of edible mushroom, similar to the button mushroom, with a distinct earthy and nutty flavour. These mushrooms are a light to medium brown colour and have a smooth, rounded cap that typically measures between 2 1/2 and 8cm in diameter.

Chestnut mushrooms have a meaty and slightly firm texture that makes them a great addition to a wide range of dishes, from stir-fries and soups to pasta and risotto. These mushrooms are versatile and can be enjoyed raw or cooked, and they pair well with a variety of flavours.

Additionally, chestnut mushrooms are a good source of protein, fibre, and essential nutrients like vitamin D and selenium, making them a healthy choice for any diet. Whether you’re a fan of mushroom dishes or just looking to add some new flavours to your meals, chestnut mushrooms are a great option to consider.

Our Chestnut mushrooms primarily come from UK suppliers.
