About Wood ear mushrooms
Wood Ear mushrooms, also known as Auricularia auricula or black fungus, are a popular ingredient in Asian cuisine, particularly Chinese dishes like hot and sour soup. These mushrooms are prized for their chewy texture and ability to absorb flavors. Nutritionally, they are low in calories and contain small amounts of protein, fiber, and key minerals such as iron, magnesium, and phosphorus. They are also known for compounds that may support heart health, improve circulation, and enhance immunity. Wood Ear mushrooms are rich in polysaccharides, which are believed to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. While they are versatile and nutritious when cooked, consuming them raw should be avoided as it may pose a risk of digestive discomfort. Their unique texture and nutritional profile make them a flavorful and health-promoting addition to soups, stir-fries, and salads.
