Silver Ear Mushroom Pieces (Tremella fuciformis) — Dried Bai Mu Er for Soup & Tea

Silver Ear Mushroom Pieces (Tremella fuciformis) are the dried, broken fruiting bodies of a highly revered food herb known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Yín Ěr (银耳), also called Bai Mu Er (白木耳) or Snow Fungus. For centuries, Yin Er has been prized as a gentle, yin-nourishing, and lung-moistening herb, used in sweet soups, congee, and daily tonics to support skin radiance, throat comfort, and overall fluid balance. Its nature is sweet, neutral, and balancing, making it a mild yet profoundly nourishing ingredient for soothing dryness and harmonizing the body.
