About this product
Pink oyster is the most colourful and impatient member of the oyster family. It loves warmth: in a heated flat it grows fast, on a cold balcony it simply stops.
The pink fades when cooked and leaves a faintly smoky, ham-like aroma. It doesn't keep well, so cook it the day you pick it. Brilliant fried until crisp, or in tacos.
Taste and texture: Faintly smoky, ham-like once cooked.
