ling chi..now what do i do? thanks!
    #5503826 - 04/11/06 02:27 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

i was hiking last year and found this...


i found these on the same hike.  i did'nt know what to do with these though :crazy2:



ive had this reishi drying out since last summer.  i have 3, all together, dried out.  is it best to crush into a powder and seep into a tea or cut into chunks and soak in vodka for a tonic? 
and to keep the questions coming, is there a limit to how much i should take?  would a shot of vodka a day be too much?  because, i would love to have an even better reason for a bloody mary :smile:
..oh and the argeric...i didn't know what to do with it?  i read a little bit about them, but not enough i guess.  i was camping, so the only way was to dry them was with an open fire.  i've read these are ok to use and also read they are not worth it.  they are everywhere!  what to do?  what to do.
i did eat some morels scrambled in egg last night.  so, that was nice.

Pretty nice finds. I've made teas and used reishi in soups, sometimes using up to a whole large mushroom in them. I don't think there is a limit as to how much you should use. It is much easier to work with if it is chopped up or powered, IME. The large specimens seem to float on water when dry and can be a pain in the ass to brew if they are whole.

thanks for the info! i just found this...and i might make the wine and also make an everclear tonic...anyway thanks again for the info. it really helps my piece mind hearing from someone else that has used it.

1. The Brewing of Reishi
- Cut up the dried reishi into small pieces with a garden cutter. The smaller the better. For a person daily usage of 3 - 5 gms, add 3 bowls of water ( 600 c.c.) and boil for 30 minutes using low heat.
( Note: Should only use clay pots or glassware, avoid the use of metallic containers.)
- The boiled reishi can be used again until the bitter taste is gone. Usually, it is good for 2 - 3 times of boiling.
- You can prepare 2 - 3 days portions at one time and keep in the refrigerator for daily use. Re-heat is best before use.
- It is best to drink before each meal. For people with stomach problem, have the brew after each meal.
- If you dislike the bitter taste of the brew, add pure honey or glucose. (Avoid the use of refined sugar.)
- You can also mix reishi pieces with brandy or Chinese wine. Store for 3 - 4 months before use.
- Used reishi pieces can be used as fertilizers for house plants.
- Reishi should be stored in a dry place, but never in the refrigerator.
