[4] Metaphorically, the mushroom and the mycelium are as similar as a fruit is to the roots of its tree.
Recycling waste products contributes to the mycelium based composites' low cost and environmental-friendliness over the current methods and materials. [12] The main determining factor of the composites’ properties is the type of substrate used. [14] However, the growth conditions and moisture content can also alter the composites ...
An edible mushroom featured as an ingredient in Chinese haute cuisine, it is used in stir-fries and chicken soups. The mushroom, grown commercially and commonly sold in Asian markets, is rich in protein, carbohydrates, and dietary fiber.
