How to eat fresh Cordyceps sinensis

There are two kinds of Cordyceps sinensis, one is dry Cordyceps sinensis, and the other is fresh Cordyceps sinensis. Cordyceps sinensis is mainly a health product and nutritional product used to nourish the body. The common Cordyceps sinensis we see must be in the pharmacy, and the Cordyceps sinensis in the pharmacy is only dry. But if we suddenly encounter fresh Cordyceps sinensis, then I believe many people don’t know how to eat it. How should fresh Cordyceps sinensis be eaten?

Every year from May to June, when the snow on the plateau melts, it is the annual season for harvesting Cordyceps sinensis. Wherever the snow melts, we can collect Cordyceps sinensis. The entire harvesting period is two months, but the best harvesting period for each Cordyceps sinensis is only a few days. If Cordyceps is harvested too early, the spores are not yet mature and the content of medicinal ingredients will be low. If it is too late, the spores will fly away and the fruiting body will wither, and it will also be useless as medicine. According to the time of harvesting, it can be divided into first-stage grass, middle-stage grass and late-stage grass. The lower the altitude, the earlier the harvesting period, and the worse the quality of Cordyceps sinensis.

According to statistics from relevant Tibetan authorities, the number of people going up the mountain to collect Cordyceps can reach as many as 400,000 to 500,000 people each year.
