●Please consume rehydrated wood ear mushrooms as soon as possible. (Approximately within 3 days)
●Dried wood ear mushrooms rehydrate to about 7-10 times their original size. Please rehydrate and use only the amount you plan to eat.
●The white parts you see are wood ear mushroom spores. They are not harmful to your body, so please eat them as they are. If you are concerned, please wash them thoroughly with water before use.
●Occasionally, unevenness may be observed on the surface of the wood ear mushrooms, but there is no problem with the quality. You can use them as they are, or if you are concerned about the texture, chop them finely before eating.
