In the magical world of fungi, morel mushrooms are one of the most captivating fungi on Earth. When fresh morel mushrooms are carefully processed into dried morel mushrooms, these rare fungi embark on a global journey in pursuit of an excellent culinary experience. Let’s explore the world of high-quality dried morel mushrooms together and get to know drMushroom™ – a trusted partner of China in the global mushroom trade.
The Unique Charm and Growth Environment of Morel Mushrooms
In scientific classification, morel mushrooms (Morchella spp.) belong to the phylum Ascomycota. They are named for their honeycomb-patterned caps that closely resemble lamb tripe, which is the origin of their Chinese name “Yang Du Jun” (羊肚菌). These precious fungi grow in the following environments:
✔️ High-altitude regions (1500-3000 meters)
✔️ Cool and humid microclimate environments (10-20 degrees Celsius)
✔️ Soils rich in humus with a neutral pH
In regions with rich biodiversity in China, such as Yunnan and Sichuan provinces, every spring, when the snow melts and nourishes the mountain forests, wild morel mushrooms emerge from the ground. This delicate growth cycle makes the harvesting of natural morel mushrooms a true seasonal art.
The Ingenious Drying Process: Preserving the Gifts of Nature
Our processing procedure certified by the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) transforms fresh morel mushrooms into delicacies that can be stored for a long time through four meticulous steps:
Hand-Sorting – Removing defective individuals
Spring Water Rinsing – Removing attached forest debris
Solar-Assisted Air Drying – 72 hours of natural dehydration
UV Sterilization – Ensuring microbial safety
What is the final result? The completely dried morel mushrooms retain:
✦ 98% of the original nutrients
✦ A rich umami flavor
✦ The characteristic of being storable throughout the year
