Dark wood ear from the Greater Khingan Mountains

Dark wood ear from the Greater Khingan Mountains is a Geographical Indication Certification trademark.

　　Wood ears from the Greater Khingan Mountains grow slowly, develop thick caps, and have an excellent texture, making them a pure, natural, pollution-free green food. The dark wood ear from the Greater Khingan Mountains has been awarded a National Geographical Indication Certification trademark.

　　Heilongjiang Province is rich in wood ear resources. The Greater and Lesser Khingan Mountains and other mountain ranges are all prime areas for producing dark wood ears. Since 1973, regions near mountains across the province have gradually started cultivating wood ears artificially, establishing thousands of wood ear farms. The use of automatic sprinkler systems and artificial rainfall has created favorable conditions for developing wood ear production.

　　Especially in recent years, the government has cultivated wood ear as a pillar industry in forested areas, providing free infrastructure investment to motivate practitioners. This has led to a steady increase in professional wood ear farmers, forming a large-scale production capacity now exceeding one million tons annually, with potential for even greater output. As a result, there is an ample supply of wood ears for use as main ingredients. In addition, the auxiliary materials needed to develop wood ear-based product lines are all sourced from natural wild resources without artificial cultivation, giving these products unique regional characteristics that cannot be replicated.

　　Wood ear, also known as auricularia, cloud ear, tree chicken, wood moth, or tree mushroom, is a fungus that grows naturally or is cultivated on various types of decaying wood. It boasts extremely high nutritional and medicinal value.

　　According to analysis: every 100 grams of wood ear contains 10.6 grams of protein, 0.2 grams of fat, 65.5 grams of carbohydrates, 7.0 grams of dietary fiber, 357 milligrams of calcium, 201 milligrams of phosphorus, 185 milligrams of iron, as well as various vitamins and minerals including Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, carotene, and niacin. It also contains important carbohydrates such as mannose, glucose, xylose, and glucuronic acid, along with vital organic compounds like lecithin, cephalin, and sphingophospholipids.

　　With its high protein content, wood ear is especially suitable for people suffering from high blood pressure or high blood lipids who should avoid fatty animal-based foods. Eating more wood ear can not only help prevent blood clotting and reduce blood viscosity but also supplement insufficient protein intake. That's why nutritionists call it the "meat among vegetables" and the "king of vegetarian foods."

　　In recent years, black foods have become highly sought-after as nutritious and health-boosting products, and wood ear stands out among black foods.
