There is a folk saying that "eat morel every year, and at eighty you can still walk all over the mountains." Its market price is also far higher than other fungi. Let us take a look below at how much morel mushroom costs per jin!
Market price of morel mushroom
The domestic price of morel mushroom is generally not very stable. Generally speaking, it is determined by the condition of the product. Ordinary grade is generally 800 to 1000 yuan, and trimmed-stem grade is generally 1200 to 1500 yuan. Prices differ by grade and market.
Production area distribution of morel mushroom
The production areas of wild morel mushroom are mainly distributed in Henan, Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai, Tibet, **, Sichuan, Shanxi, Jilin, Jiangsu, Yunnan, Hebei, Beijing and other areas of our country. Within two to three years after a mountain fire, the yield is especially high, so pickers in North America collect morel mushrooms according to mountain fires. However, after the fire is controlled, the quantity growing in the same area will decrease year after year.
Identification of wild morel mushroom
1. Morphology: Compared with cultivated morel mushroom, wild morel mushroom is relatively smaller in size and relatively lighter in color.
2. Smell: The aroma of wild morel mushroom is stronger than that of cultivated morel mushroom.
3. Taste: Wild morel mushroom has a more tender texture.
How to select morel mushroom
1. Morel mushroom should not contain too much water. Those that are especially heavy are often injected with water by unscrupulous vendors. Such morel mushrooms not only lose nutrients seriously, but are also especially difficult to preserve.
2. Carefully observe the surface of the morel mushroom. It should be structurally intact and should not smell sour.
3. Do not buy overripe morel mushrooms. Observe the cap: only those that have not fully opened, or that have opened without cracking and wilting, are good morel mushrooms.
