How To Dry Mushrooms/Dehydrate Mushrooms in a Dehydrator
Why do you dry mushrooms?
Mushroom is a kind of fungus. It grows in a humid environment. After picking it, the mushroom has a lot of water, which is not easy to preserve, and it will breed some other poisonous fungi, so we need to dry the mushroom for preservation.Dried mushrooms contain more vitamin D, mainly because ergosterol is converted to more vitamin D under sunlight drying.
Therefore, fresh mushrooms placed in the sun after eating can promote the production of more vitamin D. It's good for our health to eat dried mushrooms after soaking.
How to dry mushrooms?
There are three main methods to dry mushrooms. The most common methods are air drying and natural light drying, but it takes a long time and is relatively slow. Another faster method is high temperature drying.Methods and steps of air drying and natural light drying:
1. first, we clean the fresh mushroom and slice it.
2. after that, it can be dried directly in the sun. Under the double action of wind and sunlight, mushrooms can be dried quickly.3. during the process of drying, we should often turn the mushroom over to ensure that both sides of the mushroom can be exposed to the sun because this can achieve the best air drying effect.
4. before dark, the dried mushrooms should be collected, otherwise, the dried mushrooms will become moldy and deteriorated due to the influence of wet air at night.
5. take the dried mushroom out several times in the next two or three days.
Methods and steps of high-temperature drying:
1. clean and slice fresh mushrooms.
2. put the cut mushroom into the dryer and adjust the temperature of the dryer. The maximum temperature shall not exceed 65 ° C to prevent the mushroom from burning.
3. dry mushrooms can be obtained after drying by the dryer for several hours.
How to dry mushrooms on a large scale?
With air-drying and sun drying, we need to do the following:1. First of all, we need a wide drying space, so that we can dry a large number of mushrooms in the same batch.
2. We can buy some cutting machines, which can quickly cut the mushrooms into pieces. At the same time, it also saves manpower and production costs.
3. After that, the mushrooms are dried and sorted manually.
Drying with high temperature requires the following:
1. First of all, you need to buy a cutting machine, which can cut mushrooms into thin slices quickly.

How to store dried mushrooms?
1: Dried mushrooms need to be sealed. We can use airtight containers such as iron cans and ceramic jars to store dried mushrooms, and the cans should be tightly covered. To minimize the opening of the container, to reduce the air into, to avoid oxidation reaction leading to deterioration.
2: Dried mushrooms need to be kept away from light. The infrared ray in the light will make the dried mushroom warm up, thus accelerating the deterioration of the dried mushroom. Therefore, it is necessary to avoid storing dried mushrooms in strong light. Dried mushrooms are best kept in a closed dark place at home. At the same time, we should also avoid packaging with transparent materials.
3: Dried mushrooms need to be dried and preserved. After putting the dried mushrooms for some time, some water may come in when eating them. It is suggested to put them in the sun every other period to dry them. This can remove the water and kill some bacteria. It is also good for preserving the dried mushrooms.
4: Dried mushrooms need to be preserved separately. Mushrooms have strong adsorption, so they must be stored separately. The containers for storing dried mushrooms should not be mixed with other articles. In addition, the containers with odor volatilization or odor adsorption should not be used to store Lentinus edodes.
5: Dried mushrooms need to be preserved at low temperatures. Dried mushrooms are best stored in some low-temperature environments because, in a low-temperature environment, microorganisms will not be very active, which can effectively prevent the deterioration of dried mushrooms.
