Eating fresh fungus can cause poisoning. Fresh fungus contains a special substance with the chemical name "porphyrin". Because of the presence of this substance, people who eat fresh fungus will develop phytophotodermatitis after being exposed to sunlight, causing skin itching, redness, swelling, itching and pain in the exposed parts of the skin, and producing rashes, blisters and edema. In comparison, dried fungus is safer.

In order to save trouble, many people simply rinse it with water and eat it. In fact, fungus needs to be soaked in water for a period of time, and then rinsed with tap water several times. Running water can prevent pesticides from penetrating.

Do not use ordinary detergents to clean black fungus. The chemical components contained in the detergents themselves can easily remain on the black fungus, which is harmful to human health. The best way is to use a salt water rinse. However, do not soak it in water for too long, otherwise the vitamins in the fungus will be lost, reducing its nutritional value, and the pesticides dissolved in water may seep back into the fungus.

In comparison, dried fungus is safer. Because dried black fungus is made from fresh black fungus that has been exposed to the sun, most of the porphyrins will be decomposed during the exposure process.

However, it should be noted that it is best to change the water two or three times when soaking dried fungus to remove harmful substances to the greatest extent. [3]
