IQF Oyster Mushrooms

IQF Oyster Mushrooms – Pleurotus ostreatus for Culinary and Industrial Use

Product Overview

IQF Oyster Mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus) are a premium cultivated variety known for their velvety texture, mild flavor, and high nutritional value. Frozen using the Individual Quick Freezing (IQF) technique, they preserve their fresh appearance, aroma, and natural umami taste, making them ideal for soups, stir-fries, sauces, frozen ready meals, and vegan food applications.

At Tuna Sourcing, our ISO 22000-certified IQF Oyster Mushrooms are grown under controlled conditions and frozen within hours of harvest. Each batch is carefully cleaned, trimmed, and sorted before freezing, ensuring uniform sizing, minimal moisture loss, and long shelf life. We offer both whole and sliced options to meet the needs of foodservice operators and industrial processors.
