1 oz,8 oz,16 oz,3 oz Wood Ear mushrooms (Auricularia Polytricha) are cultivated all over the world, exclusively in China. Wood Ear mushrooms received their given name because they look like ears growing out of trees. Wood Ear mushrooms are thick and smooth-skinned, though wrinkly.
Wood ears are actually a distant relative of the cloud ear fungus. Larger and somewhat tougher, they lack the delicate taste of cloud ears.
