Tip 1. Soak white fungus.
Be sure to use warm water when soaking Tremella fuciformis. Never use hot water. Hot water will not only destroy the nutrients of Tremella fuciformis, but also make it difficult to produce glue when cooked. It is best to use warm water of 30-40 degrees to soak white fungus. It is easier to boil white fungus in warm water to produce gelatin.
