Have you ever wondered how wood ear mushrooms end up on our dining table? The process begins with the production of wood ear mushroom seeds. These seeds are then heated with steam to ensure they are free from bacteria. After that, the seeds in liquid form are inserted into the growing medium. This stage is very crucial to ensure the mushrooms can grow well. Then the seeds that are ready are placed into a special machine that creates holes in the outer layer so that the wood ear mushrooms can develop more easily. After that, they are inserted into bamboo sticks that have been planted into the ground. To ensure optimal growth, the wood ear mushrooms are automatically watered periodically so that the moist condition is maintained. After 7 to 10 days, the mushrooms begin to grow and are ready to be harvested. Uniquely from just one seed, harvesting can be done multiple times. After being harvested, the mushrooms are dried under the sun until they are completely dry before entering the packaging stage. The final result is dried wood ear mushrooms, known to be highly nutritious and often used as an ingredient in dishes ranging from stirfries to soups.
