Organic Auricularia capsules (Food supplement)
THE TRUE EAR MUSHROOM (lat. Auricularia auricula - judae) is an edible mushroom, commonly known as the "tree ear" mushroom. It belongs to the genus Auricularia, and grows on both living and dead trees in temperate and tropical regions around the world. This mushroom is particularly popular in East Asia, especially China, Japan and Korea. China is the largest producer of A. auricula-judae. The ear mushroom we sell is grown exclusively in the European Union.
The ear-shaped mushroom has a stretchy, rubbery consistency and is brown/tan in color. It can grow up to 10 cm in diameter. This mushroom is often used in Chinese cuisine, especially in soups and stir-fry dishes. The prepared mushroom has a mild, slightly sweet flavor and a crunchy texture.
Auricularia auricula (also known as black fungi, wood ear, Jew's ear or jelly ear) is used not only in cooking, but also in traditional Chinese medicine.
