Don't throw away the root of the king oyster mushrooms you buy
In the hot pot ingredients ranking, king oyster mushrooms always occupy an irreplaceable position. This type of edible fungus, rich in dietary fiber, not only brings a crisp texture but also hides an astonishing regenerative ability. Have you ever thought that the discarded stem roots on the dining table could become a new source of growth for ingredients?
Core Technology of Hydroponic Regeneration of King Oyster Mushrooms
Selection and Pretreatment of Mushroom Roots
Select high-quality king oyster mushrooms with thick stems and unopened caps, and cut 2-3 centimeters from the root with a sterilized knife. The cross-section of the cut should show a uniform milky white color; if brown spots appear, a different strain should be used.
Formula for Nutrient Solution Preparation
Based on 500ml of water: 1. 5g of edible baking soda (to adjust the pH to 7.5-8.0) 2. 2g of glucose (to provide a carbon source) 3. One sheet of cotton filter paper (as a substitute for traditional culture medium)
Environmental Control System
maintain a constant temperature of 5-10°C, use a light-blocking container to simulate underground growth conditions. Ventilate twice a day, each for 15 minutes, to ensure air circulation while avoiding contamination by other bacteria.
Creative Recipe Ideas for King Oyster Mushrooms
Low-Temperature Fermentation Cold Dish Process
Compare the regenerative king oyster mushrooms with the first-generation strain in cooking, use lactic acid bacteria to ferment for 24 hours at 4°C, to obtain unique umami substances, and pair with special scallion oil to increase the sodium glutamate content by 30%.
Molecular Cuisine Improvement Technology
Subject the king oyster mushrooms in the bacon roll to vacuum low-temperature treatment (56°C/45 minutes), and use edible film made of seaweed gel to replace the traditional toothpick fixation method, achieving a dual enhancement of texture and safety.
Through scientific cultivation and creative cooking, ordinary consumers can achieve a 400% utilization rate of king oyster mushrooms. This sustainable ingredient regeneration model not only reduces food waste but also opens up new ideas for home gardening. When the deliciousness on the plate meets ecological wisdom, ordinary ingredients can also demonstrate an extraordinary cycle of life.
