Can I use fresh mushroom?

[@thailandajarn]

Hi just subbed. I'd like to make this with a mixture of dried mushrooms. Do you have any suggestions for types and braising times, please?

[@TasteofAsianFood]

Dried mushrooms need a longer time. You can add some straw mushrooms and button mushrooms. The time required is much shorter; five to ten minutes should be more than enough.

[@thailandajarn]

Thanks for the swift reply. I was hoping for instructions for making this dish with a mixture of dried mushrooms - the type that can be bought from taobao but thanks anyway.

燉跟燴的差別 是甚麼? what is the difference between the stewing and braised?

[@TasteofAsianFood]

Braising is to cook with water partially covered, usually a shorter time. Stewing is the same, but with more water fully cover the food, and longer.

shaiitake mushroom

[@skatingcanuck9837]

Aren't these flower mushrooms? The tops look like flower mushrooms. I ask because I have made the mistake of getting the two confused.

[@TasteofAsianFood]

Yes, it is. Some better quality Chinese dried mushrooms look like flower pattern on top and are called flower mushrooms.
