Tips for choosing delicious ingredients:
Choosing good shiitake mushrooms (shiitake):
- For fresh mushrooms, it is best to buy those with bright colors, a characteristic aroma, and avoid choosing bruised mushrooms with a rotten smell. If the cut emits a milky white substance, it is a sign of poisonous mushrooms. Avoid mushrooms with dark spots or wrinkles on the cap, and do not choose slimy mushrooms. Fresh mushrooms will have a thin, paper-like coating on them. Choose mushrooms with a sturdy stem, uniform color, and if the mushrooms have opened, the gills should be evenly spaced, beautiful, and dry.
- When choosing fresh shiitake mushrooms, select those with medium caps, tightly curled, and a slightly yellow-brown color. If you see dark brown mushrooms, it is better not to buy them, as they may be poisonous.
- How to choose good dried mushrooms: choose those that are firm, not broken, bright in color, and free of white mold spots. Choose a reputable source to buy dried mushrooms to ensure safety.
