Mushrooms, Chinese, dried, raw

Chinese mushrooms are edible fungi; the figures here describe them dried and raw, before soaking or cooking. They mainly provide carbohydrate, with some protein and a range of minerals and B vitamins. Per 100g, they contain 60g of carbohydrate, 10g of protein, 1.8g of fat and 1480mg of potassium.

Potassium supports normal nerve and muscle function, while protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Drying removes water and concentrates nutrients by weight, so these figures should not be applied directly to the same weight of soaked or cooked mushrooms. Salt added during preparation will also affect the final salt content. Full nutrient figures are given in the tables below.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (Literature sources). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.
