Truffles are more expensive wild mushrooms in Yunnan in addition to matsutake mushrooms and morels, but its popularity in Yunnan is not high, truffles are more famous in Europe, good quality is often auctioned, and Yunnan truffles, before, were fed to pigs, and even in today's Yunnan, truffles are not known by most people.
Black truffles
Truffles because of the popularity in Yunnan, the popularity is not high, especially easy to be recognized, one is that truffles and well-known Chinese medicine Poria often admit mistakes, read the statements of netizens, the second is that and I sent before the black conscience will also admit mistakes, in fact, these are three different things.
Truffles in the picture above and poria in the picture below, both of which are produced in the roots of pine trees, are similar in appearance and are particularly prone to being mistaken.
Truffles are often more valuable than the chicken fir, dried bacillus, etc. that are loved by Yunnan people, but unfortunately, in the central Yunnan region, the degree of recognition is still very low.
Truffles in the picture above, black conscience in the picture below, the two are often mistaken, in fact, the difference between the two is huge.
Because truffles and poria are the same fungus, all produced in the roots of pine trees, often by people who do not know the truth as a thing, my grandfather's side of the mountain forest has been in the summer and autumn with tools in the pine root to plan the truffle, but my grandfather they think that others are planing poria, I personally went to see, that is truffles instead of poria.
Truffles
Truffles are cut into three colors of black, white and gray, and generally gray truffles are also divided into black truffles, so truffles are widely recognized as black truffles and white truffles.
The truffle cut surface in the upper picture and the poria cut face in the lower picture are actually completely different.
The cut black truffle and the black conscience look very similar at first glance, in fact, it is a completely different fungus, a closer look can find the difference between the two, and truffles grow under the tree, the naked eye can not see, and the black conscience is longer on the surface, visible to the naked eye.
Truffles are generally more famous for eating sashimi, but this does not meet the taste of Chinese, so truffles have not been widely recognized and received, generally sold as dried mushrooms, fresh is generally fried to eat, but these methods have greatly reduced the delicious taste of truffles.
Yunnan truffle production place, according to the place I have seen with my own eyes, there is a place called 707 under The Shidian in Baoshan, Yunnan, there are many truffles, black and white truffles, and there are also Loose On the market, in the mountains and forests of a few places below Jinning County in central Yunnan, I have rarely seen truffles in the market of Kunming.
White truffles
It's funny to say, the mountain forest below Jinning is my grandfather's side, the locals don't know this thing, generally treated as poria, the popularity is not high, and other wild mushrooms are more favored.
I really hope that one day, the value of truffles can be recognized by everyone, and it can also be called a well-known wild mushroom on the table.
