Linzhi matsutake sashimi | This kind of high-end cuisine has not even been eaten by celebrity foodies

Overview

It’s the hot matsutake season again! From state banquets to celebrity weddings, matsutake mushrooms have almost become the most bragging business card for Chinese people. Matsutake mushrooms are almost always the first course at major state banquets in my country, including the Olympics state banquet, APEC state banquet, and the CICA Summit. In 2008, the cup of melon and pine mushroom soup appeared at the Beijing Olympics state banquet, and at the 2014 Shanghai Conference on Interaction and Confidence Building Measures in Asia (CICA) Summit, pine mushroom stew and fish maw appeared. Chefs at state banquets often use matsutake mushrooms to prepare various dishes, which also shows how valuable matsutake mushrooms are. Without exception, top-quality ingredients such as matsutake mushrooms are used as the most outstanding dishes to entertain guests. When it comes to the quality of Chinese matsutake, Linzhi matsutake is second to none!

  5. Clean quickly with running water. The reason why we choose ceramic knives is because the metal components of iron knives/stainless steel knives will cause oxidation reactions when in contact with matsutake mushrooms, causing the matsutake mushrooms to turn black, causing the destruction of nutrients and taking away the fragrance of the matsutake mushrooms.
