What wood ear is · a fungus, not a plant

木耳是什么 · 真菌, 不是植物

Wood ear (cloud ear, Auricularia) is a fungus — same kingdom as mushrooms, not a plant. It grows on dead wood, and China is the main producer and consumer; dried wood ear is a staple pantry item in nearly every household.

Its two high-frequency identities:

Cold-dish / stir-fry star: wood ear salad, wood ear with meat, the black shreds in yu xiang rou siThe rehydration step: dried wood ear must be soaked, and soaking hides China's most underrated food-safety risk — bongkrekic-acid poisoning. That is this story's most important mechanism, in a dedicated special-knowledge scene.
Nutritionally, wood ear carries a classic misconception: 'wood ear replenishes iron and blood' — extremely widespread, but rehydrated wood ear is low in iron and what little exists is non-heme (the takedown is in rich-in).

Later scenes quantify by dry and rehydrated weight separately — wood ear's ~10x wet-dry gap is the premise for reading any of its numbers.
