What is the difference between bird s nest and white fungus, and what is the difference between bird

The taste is different:Golden swallow fungus is a kind of white fungus, which has a better taste and higher nutritional value for ordinary white fungus. Golden Swallow Fungus is a high-quality white fungus artificially cultivated by using biological carrier technology with more than a dozen kinds of Chinese medicinal materials such as Huaishan, Astragalus membranaceus, and lotus seeds as the culture medium.

When eating white fungus, you need to rinse the white fungus slightly, white fungus is generally soaked in cold water, if it is winter, you can choose to soak it in warm water, you need to pay attention to the water temperature should not be too high, otherwise the taste of white fungus may decline.

Tremella precautions.

Pay attention to moderate drinking and not overdose: Generally speaking, white fungus soup is mostly cooked with rock sugar, which not only tastes good, but also has a good hepatoprotective effect. However, due to the high sugar content, it needs to be drunk in moderation and not in excess; In particular, try not to eat it before going to bed at night, so as not to bring the consequences of increased blood viscosity.

Do not eat overnight white fungus: Although white fungus soup is delicious and replenishing, but when encountering overnight white fungus soup, remember not to eat it. Because white fungus contains nitrates, once stored for a long time, it will decompose into nitrites.

Once consumed, there is a high risk of nitrite poisoning in the body.

Bird's nest is a nest made of saliva secreted by swiftlets mixed with other substances, which is a tonic, and white fungus is an edible fungus, but bird's nest is rich in sialic acid, protein, sugars and other nutrients, and is the only channel that can obtain a large amount of sialic acid from natural food, which can promote immunity. The above is the difference between white fungus and bird's nest.

Bird's nest is the saliva secreted by swallows when they build their nests, which are made up of precious swiftlet or swift saliva mixed with other substances, and are divided into blood swiftlets and white swifts. The ** of the blood swallow is higher than that of the white swallow. Tremella fungus, also known as white fungus, is chrysanthemum-shaped or cockscomb-shaped, soft and white, translucent and elastic.

The fruiting body of the fungus Tremella is a fungus that lives on the decaying wood of broadleaved trees.

It can be stewed with red dates and rock sugar to make red dates and white fungus. After the white fungus is dried, the shell is hard and brittle, white or beige, and can be stored for a long time. Bird's nest and white fungus taste similar, but ** and ingredients are quite different.

Origin of bird's nest and white fungus

The main production areas of bird's nest range from the Philippines in the east to the desert islands near the coast of Myanmar in the west, and most of them are in Southeast Asian waters such as Sandakan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand, as well as the islands of the South China Sea. Due to the weather and environment in Indonesia, which is more suitable for swallow gathering, Indonesian bird's nest has better quality and larger yield, followed by Malaysia.

Tremella fuciformis is a specialty of China, and it is mainly distributed in Sichuan, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Anhui, Taiwan, Hubei, Hainan, Hunan, Inner Mongolia and other regions in China. Wild white fungus is scarce and was a valuable tonic in ancient times.

Fujian Gutian is the largest production area of Tremella fuciformis in China, and Gutian Tremella is a specialty of Gutian County, Fujian Province. Gutian white fungus has a long history of artificial cultivation, advanced technology, good mass production foundation and other favorable factors, so that the production of white fungus is complete, bright color, smooth and tender taste. Therefore, it is known as "the capital of edible fungi in China" and "the hometown of white fungus".

The difference between swallow fungus and white fungus is that the appearance and shape are different, and the eating taste is different.

2. The eating taste is different.

Bird's nest does not taste as rich as white fungus, and the taste will vary greatly depending on the stewing time, such as the stewing time is short, its taste is soft and elastic, if the stewing time is long, it will turn into water, and it will taste smooth and sticky; Tremella has the crisp taste of black fungus when blanched for a short time, and it has a jelly-like Q elastic soft glutinous after being stewed for a long time, and bird's nest also has a fishy smell, while white fungus does not, relatively speaking, white fungus is better than bird's nest.

Reasons why white fungus cannot replace bird's nest:

Tremella fungus is the fruiting body of the fungus, bird's nest is a nest made of saliva secreted by swiftlets mixed with other substances, the two are essentially different, Tremella can not replace bird's nest, but the bird's nest is high, the average person can not often eat bird's nest, Tremella is cheap, you can often eat Tremella, but this is not to replace bird's nest with Tremella, but to change a food to eat.
