Tengang Daga or Dried Black Fungus

Black fungus is usually sold in dried form. Before you eat it, it needs to be reconstituted in warm water for at least 1 hour. While soaking, the mushrooms expand 3–4 times in size. In a small pot, fill half of the pot with water and bring it to boil. Cook the black fungus for 3 minutes, drain and set it aside.
