The effect of Tremella fuciformis porridge

It is beneficial for those with cough, blood in sputum, and thirst due to yin deficiency.

Therefore, it is a traditional delicacy and a good tonic, but once it goes bad, it must not be eaten. Because the toxic substance in the spoiled Tremella is fermented rice flour bacillus, there is currently no effective drug treatment, so it must be carefully identified.

Appearance identification: spoiled Tremella is dark yellow in color, incomplete or broken in shape, with dirty stems, black spots or impurities. (If the Tremella flower is yellow, it may be dried after rain or moisture, the nutritional value will not be affected, but the commodity value will be reduced).

Identify by touch: spoiled Tremella fuciformis is not dry and will feel damp to the touch.

Identification by smell and quality: Tremella fuciformis will become moldy and deteriorate when exposed to moisture. It can smell sour or other unpleasant odors. Deteriorated Tremella fuciformis tastes spicy.

Identification of water-expanded Tremella: After being soaked in warm water, the volume of good Tremella will rapidly expand by 5 to 10 times, while the volume of deteriorated Tremella will not increase much after being soaked in water. If the Tremella is found to disintegrate and disperse after being soaked in water, it means that the Tremella is made of small pieces of Tremella glued together.
