How to Stir-Fry Pork with Wood Ear Mushrooms: Simple & delicious dish, can be made with chicken

I suggest making a stir-fried meat dish with black mushrooms. Once cooked, these mushrooms retain their crunchiness and are infused with the sauce of the dish
👩‍🍳Ingredients for 4 people:
35g dried black fungus mushrooms
1 onion
4 garlic cloves
1 tsp grated ginger
3 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
10cl water
Marinade:
350g pork shoulder (or chicken breast)
¼ tsp salt
Ground pepper
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tsp dark soy sauce
1 tsp cornstarch
1 tbsp vegetable oil

Thanks for sharing,
I find if you rehydrate them in the stock of whatever protien you are using (beef, chicken or even a wood eat stock ect) instead of water - they will greatly inbolden the dish.

Lovely and simple recipe - I'm thankful for the guidance!! We are lucky to have many wood ear growing wild on our farm, so I've been wanting to learn different ways to cook with them during the rainy season. I'll defintely be trying this dish.

Find them in Asian supermarkets, supermarkets with a good Asian aisle or online.It’s not that difficult.

Their scientific name is Auricularia polytricha.
If you want them fresh
you can morticulture them ( dead wood agriculture )
by boring holes into oak logs
& filling them with plug spawn (myceliated sawdust or wooden dowels) which you can find cheap online. Then seal them in with bees wax.
They take 10-20 days to colonize and 4-6 months to fruit. You want to keep their temp between 59-65 degrees Fahrenheit & the humidity of their environment at 85% for optimum growth & fruiting.
So using a green house if you do not live in an ideal environment is recommended.
It's really no more difficult then following a recipe, about 5 minutes of checking on them everyday after you innoculate your logs.
With the right set up you can grow them year round, using staggered innoculation times so you always have logs fruiting.
different species of Auricularia have different growing parameters, so you can shop around for ones easier for your climate.
You can significantly decrease the time from innoculation to fruiting with indoor growing, and increase the diversity of substrates you can use, but that method is also more difficult as fungal pest species like trichoderma can contaminate your grows- so it requires alot more knowledge and infrastructure.
But anyone can morticulture wood loving mushrooms using plug spawn.
