This and snow fungus were my favourite salads growing up in South of Russia. We didn't have a Chinese community in my city but we had a lot of Koreans, so a lot of spicy and fermented dishes were popular.

I found your video's 3 days ago. The next day I bought all the ingredients and I made your egg foo young and this delicious black fungus dish. I absolutely loved both of them. Thank you so much. I will continue to make more of your wonderful recipes. xxxxxxx
I found a load of these growing wild on elder trees in my neighbourhood. They're not too difficult to identify, there aren't many poisonous mushrooms that look similar (though of course be very careful when hunting mushrooms!) I was planning on putting them all in hot-and-sour soup, but I think I'll give this a try as well!
If you like umami flavor and tolerate dairy, slice the portobello mushrooms 1/4" thick, add salt, just a little splash of water, put a lid on the pot and set medium heat. Very soon the pot will be full of liquid from the mushrooms, that's when you remove the lid and stir until most of the liquid is gone. Take the mushroom out and add full fat sour cream. I never tried it but adding some soy sauce would probably make it even more umami. Enjoy! P. S. The reason to omit oil is I noticed this way the taste is really pure and not dry at all with the cream. Frying them makes them somehow mediocre for me.
This recipe was delicious, thank you!! I didn’t have the time to try the full recipe from scratch, but I used about 1tbsp of Szechuan chili oil/sauce from the grocery store… I can finally enjoy my favorite black fungus salad like at restaurants!
In Northeast India it's one of the most loved mushrooms . In packed in plastic and sold for 20,50 rupees and in the villages you can get a Kilo of the jelly mushroom for 1000 rupees. I work in the mainland so whenever I go to my hometown I used to buy a kilo and take it to the mainland to enjoy it because Jelly Mushrooms aren't eaten rsod in mainland as theyare mostly eaten and sold in Northeast India.
Where I'm from, we called these "Elephant Ears" because they tended to be large and 'floppy'. The locals know it as "pepeiao" or 'ears'. I've used it in Japanese main dish such as 'nishime', a kind of stew, never as a salad-should be good! Never noticed the sliminess before, just the crunchiness. ummm
My only previous experience with black fungus was strip-form in ramen. I like experimenting making food, and was thinking about black fungus but not wanting a whole huge bowl of ramen with barely any BF. There's an Asian Market two minutes from my house and they HAD IT!! Not even $2 for a bag! The ramen strips I had were very flavourful and I was trying to see if it's bland on its own or not. Your video helped a lot!! I'm going to soak this one giant fungi-top in water....but I'm going to add soy sauce, ginger, oyster sauce, garlic "juice," maybe some hoisin, I have homemade allspice as well...so the mushroom itself is flavoured as it soaks. Thank you for being the ONE PLACE that said the mushrooms alone are bland! Lol Edit: also dried bonito flakes!! One heck of a tea bag for my black fungus 😍
Ahh!!!! I love how excited you get about food. I was wondering if you knew any good savory recipes for white wood ear mushroom? Thank you so much for the videos!!!!
Souped Up Recipes Yeah! I grew up with the sweet soup myself, but I always wondered if there was anything savory you could use the mushrooms with. You are amazing!!! Thank you so much for the reply!!!!!!! ❤❤❤
Awesome recipe and super simple. I hunt wild mushrooms and we have something that grows wild here called "Wood Ear", which is a similar fungus to what you used in this recipe. I love these mushrooms so this is definitely on my list. By the way, these are often used in Hot & Sour Soup in local Chinese restaurants here. Do you know how to make this?
Cool, you grow pepper...and you hunt mushrooms... where are you live in? About the Hot & Sour Soup, do you have any pictures? So I can understand what you are talking about.
I live in the North-Eastern United States. In Chinese the Hot & Sour Soup is called "酸辣湯". Here's the link to the English Wiki: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_and_sour_soup Actually, my two favorite soups are Hot & Sour, and Wonton Soup lol
In the UK we call them wood ear mushrooms. It's amazing that they look so much like ears that people across the world have called them some variation of ear 😂
Other than size, is there any other difference between these cloud ears you use, and the big fungus (with white back)? I used the big fungus, but was a bit thicker than I like.
i wish you wouldn't try to sound so American, and just be yourself. you are Chinese, obviously, so don't copy another culture. Also, don't be so self deprecating and call it "weird". Just say, Westerners are not used to this texture. Be more educational and diplomatic. Don't be such a shameful mainland Chiense

I had this in China and was blown away by how tasty it was. It was tangy and umami. Thanks for the recipe!
