Enoki is one of the cheapest specialty mushrooms to buy and one of the most demanding to ship safely. Every lot we supply is tested for Listeria before export, and every pack carries a "cook before eating" instruction.
Loose enoki is priced per kg online. Retail packs (100 g, 150 g, 200 g) are quoted by label and pallet quantity.
