1. Use a knife to cut off the roots (it is best to use a ceramic knife or a bamboo knife). Because there are soil and some fibers in the roots, it is difficult to clean, so use a knife to cut them clean.

2. Rinse the matsutake mushrooms under small water, and gently scrape off the dirt on the matsutake mushrooms with a knife, or brush them gently with a brush.

3. Rinse clean. Be careful to move quickly. Matsutake cannot be soaked in water for a long time, which will affect the taste.

4. Use kitchen paper to dry the excess water of the washed matsutake. If there is no kitchen paper, dry it gently with a towel.
