Product description

A visually striking, whole-food, vegan-friendly alternative to traditional beef steak, our Lion’s Mane mushroom steaks are designed for professional kitchens seeking premium centre-of-plate solutions.

Naturally dense and meaty in texture, Lion’s Mane mushrooms caramelise and char exceptionally well, delivering crisp, golden edges and a tender interior when pan-seared or grilled. The result is a product that performs reliably in high-heat service environments while maintaining an elevated presentation.

Our signature Prepared Mane marinade enhances both flavour and visual appeal, creating a rare-style appearance with a deeper red centre and rich browning at the edges. This allows chefs to plate a plant-based steak that mirrors the visual cues of traditional meat while offering a clean-label, whole-food alternative.

Flavour Profile

A visually striking, whole-food, plant-based alternative to beef steak. They caramelise and char beautifully when seared or grilled, thanks to the mushroom’s natural spines. Our signature marinade creates a rare-style finish: darker in the centre, richer and browned at the edges. Tender and juicy with real bite - no sliminess. The flavour is balanced to complement your sauce of choice, not overpower it.
