    Here’s a little blog post about the soup. My mom used to whip this up when I was a kid; reminds me of home :)

    Not sure where you’re from, but you can find them dried in bags at any Asian supermarket in the western US. Just gotta head to where all the dried goods are.

    To actually cultivate the thing, I wouldn’t be able to tell ya x)

      I just looked up cultivation, and it’s and interesting creature. It’s a parasitic fungus that needs annulohypoxylon archeri (Black Fungus) as a host to trigger thick mycelium growth and fruiting.

      Other than having to grow two different strains, it’s just your typical wood lover that needs a metric ton of water to grow.
