Matters needing attention in soaking fungus
Under normal circumstances, in order to facilitate the use of cold water for auricularia auricula, some people will use hot water for soaking, which is faster. However, if the temperature is too high, some polysaccharide substances may be dissolved, which is beneficial to the body. At the same time, soaking in hot water may easily lead to the taste of black fungus is not so crisp, so if time is not very tight, it is best to soak in cold water slowly.
In addition to these, we should pay attention to controlling the soaking time when soaking fungus, otherwise it may lead to some unexpected situations. Some people may soak fungus in advance when preparing ingredients, or even start soaking one day in advance, and the water for soaking fungus has not been changed in time during this period.
If the temperature is hot, it will easily lead to the growth of some bacteria. Once more than 7 hours, the fungus may deteriorate, leading to an increase in the number of bacteria, and may also produce toxic substances, so be sure to pay attention. It's best to soak it right away, don't wait too long.
