Coral Tooth Mushrooms (Hericium coralloides) are a striking and edible wild mushroom named for their resemblance to underwater coral. Instead of the typical cap-and-stem shape, they grow in intricate, branching clusters covered with delicate, dangling spines or “teeth” that hang like icicles.
They have a delicate, seafood-like flavor described as subtly sweet with notes reminiscent of crab or lobster, making them a prized ingredient in gourmet cooking. Their tender, meaty texture absorbs flavors beautifully, and they’re delicious when sautéed with butter and herbs, or added to pasta, risottos, or stir-fries. Their mild yet savory taste brings depth to soups, broths, and plant-based seafood alternatives.
