Overview
Tremella, also known as white fungus, snow fungus, white fungus, etc., belongs to the genus Tremella of the fungus family Tremellaceae. It is the fruiting body of the fungus Tremella fuciformis of the phylum Basidiomycota, and is known as the crown of fungi. The fruit body of Tremella fuciformis is pure white to milky white, 5 to 10 cm in diameter, soft and white, translucent and elastic. Tremella is sweet, light, neutral in nature and non-toxic. It not only has the effect of tonifying the spleen and appetizing, but also has the effects of benefiting qi, clearing the intestines, nourishing yin and moistening the lungs. It can not only enhance human immunity, but also enhance the tolerance of tumor patients to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Tremella is rich in natural plant-based colloids and has the function of nourishing yin. It is a good emollient food that can be taken for a long time. Tremella originated in Tongjiang, Sichuan. De Ling, a maid of the Qing Dynasty, wrote about Tongjiang Tremella in "The Imperial Fragrance, Imperial Kitchen" and said: Things like Tremella are extremely expensive in the market. A small box of Tremella often costs one to twenty taels of silver to buy.
