Nameko is one of the most popular cultivated mushrooms in Japan. The cap is covered in a translucent slime when fresh, which disappears when cooked. Great in soups, where it acts as a thickener, and adds a complex, nutty flavour to stir-fries.
Common in the temperate highlands of China, Taiwan, and northern Japan.
A striking golden colour, Nameko fruits on hardwood or softwood logs or hardwood sawdust. Logs should be partially buried due to the species’ high moisture requirement.
This strain fruits from 12-18˚c.
Preferred agar culture media: MEA, MYA, PDYA
Preferred substrate: Hardwood or Softwood Logs, Supplemented Sawdust. Particularly favours Oak and Beech.
