Auricularia in the kitchen

Auricularia has long been used in various Asian cuisines and is particularly well-known in Chinese cooking. The mushroom has a rather mild flavor and is primarily valued for its unique, slightly crunchy texture.

It is used, for example, in soups, stir-fries, and vegetable dishes. In dried form, Auricularia is usually soaked in water before preparation, which causes the fruiting bodies to significantly regain their volume.
