Marinated Saffron Milkcap Mushrooms – in Olive Oil (Lactarius deliciosus)

Product Overview

Marinated Saffron Milkcap Mushrooms (Lactarius deliciosus), known for their distinct orange color, firm texture, and delicate pine aroma, are a Mediterranean gourmet specialty preserved in extra virgin olive oil with natural herbs and spices. These mushrooms are celebrated for their mild, nutty flavor and beautiful color retention, making them ideal for antipasti, meze, salads, and fine dining dishes. The olive oil marinade enhances both flavor and longevity, offering a ready-to-serve delicacy that reflects the true spirit of the Mediterranean forest.
