Wild mushrooms contain 18 kinds of amino acids, which are rich in lysine necessary for human body. Protein content in wild mushrooms is very high, equivalent to milk, and the digestibility reaches 70-90%, so it is called "plant meat". The fruiting body of mushroom is rich in nutrition, and the content of protein is mostly above 30%, which is higher than that of ordinary vegetables and fruits. Mushrooms contain a variety of vitamins, especially vitamin A and vitamin D. Many mushrooms contain carotene, which can be converted into vitamin A in the human body, so mushrooms are also called "vitamin A treasure house". The content of vitamin D in mushrooms is 20 times that of soybeans and 8 times that of kelp. Moreover, vitamin D can help the human body absorb calcium, which is beneficial to the health of bones. In addition, mushrooms are rich in iron, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and mineral elements, thiamine (vitamin B 1), riboflavin (vitamin B2), nicotinic acid (vitamin B complex), ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and other vitamins and enzymes.
How to deal with wild mushrooms
First, before washing mushrooms, you must first remove the hard pedicle with more sand at the bottom of the mushroom handle, because this part is too hard, and the stuck sand and ash tip are not easy to clean up. The best way is to remove the hard pedicle by hand or scissors.
2. Fresh mushrooms can be soaked in clean water for about half an hour, and then rotated in a basin to remove sand and other impurities from the mushrooms.
Third, the light salt water cleaning method. Most mushrooms have mucus on their surfaces. If mushrooms are slippery to the touch and there is too much sediment and other dust sticking to them, it is not easy to clean them. You can put some salt in the water and stir it to dissolve it. The amount of salt is equivalent to the amount you put in cooking, and then soak the mushrooms in water for about half an hour before washing, so that the sediment and other impurities can be washed away easily.
For fresh wild mushrooms, after cleaning, blanch them in boiling water. Before boiling water, put some rushes or some fresh garlic in the water. After the water is boiled, put the mushrooms in boiling water and cook for a few minutes. After the mushrooms are cooked, Juncus becomes turquoise or purple-green, toxic, and yellow is non-toxic. Garlic is poisonous when it changes color, but it is not poisonous when it remains unchanged.
Precautions: Wild mushrooms should be carefully eaten and carefully identified. It is best not to eat wild mushrooms that are not at ease to avoid poisoning. Therefore, for any kind of mushroom, whether cultivated or wild, it is recommended to blanch it with boiling water. When blanching, you must put a few fresh garlic or a few rushes, and then eat it according to the discoloration.
