About mu er ( gan )

Dried black fungus, nutritionally concentrated; calories plunge once rehydrated.

Health Benefits of mu er ( gan )

Concentrated nutrition in dried form

Dried wood-ear fungus has ~29.9g fibre and 10.6g protein per 100g at 205 kcal - which looks high, but soaking swells it 5-7x: 10g dried rehydrates to about 60-70g, only ~20 kcal. Its fibre density ranks among the top of common ingredients.

Soaking and safety

Soak and eat the same day; never leave overnight. Left at room temperature over 4 hours it can grow Bongkrek-producing bacteria (deadly bongkrekic acid). The right way: soak in cold water 1-2 hours before the meal, drain, and finish it in one sitting. Keep dried fungus in a sealed jar, dark and dry, for months.
