2. Eating more edible fungi can provide rich protein and low calories

Protein is an indispensable nutrient for the human body, but most protein-rich foods are fat-rich foods. Therefore, when people supplement protein, they always inadvertently supplement a lot of fat, which is not very beneficial for controlling weight and preventing chronic diseases. Fungal food is an excellent health food that is rich in protein but low in calories. The number of essential amino acids contained in fungal food protein accounts for an average of about 30% of the total amino acids, especially the tryptophan content, which is the highest known in the plant kingdom so far. In addition, fungal food is also rich in vitamin D and a small amount of vitamin B12 as well as a variety of minerals and trace elements. For people with a refined modern diet, the rich crude fiber it contains also has significant therapeutic effects on supplementing dietary fiber, promoting gastrointestinal motility, and improving constipation.

For people who want to lose weight, fungi are a good and rare food. A considerable part of fungi food needs to be expanded with water before cooking. Their calories are mostly around 300 kcal per 100g when calculated by dry weight, which is medium to high among protein foods. However, when calculated by humidity, the calories per 100g are basically below 100 kcal. It can be said that it complements livestock meat food, and people who want to lose weight can get rich protein without the hidden danger of taking in a lot of fat even if they don't add meat to their diet.

3. Choose high-quality King Oyster Mushrooms and look at three things

First, look at the cap: the cap is round and disc-shaped, with a silky luster, smooth and dry. Then check whether the cap is open. If the cap is open, it means that it was picked too late, the spores have already opened, and its nutrition is greatly reduced. The diameter is about 3 cm, which is the best taste for the King Oyster Mushroom.

Next, look at the gills: the gills should be densely arranged, milky white in color, with flat edges and sides, and small gills.

Finally, look at the stem: first look at the fibers on the surface. If they are too thick, it means it is too old. If they are too thin, it means it is too tender and lacks chewiness. The degree of doneness is just right when it is 70% done. The best length of the stem is about 10 cm. Finally, look at the color. It should be milky white and smooth, and the flesh should be thick.
