Se trata de una Auricularia auricula-judae y es un hongo comestible con forma de oreja humana. A pesar de su raro aspecto es una seta medicinal de consistencia gelatinosa y de tacto aterciopelado.
This is Auricularia auricula-judae and is an edible mushroom shaped like a human ear. Despite its strange appearance, it is a medicinal mushroom with a gelatinous consistency and a velvety feel.
Puede consumirse cruda, en ensalada y es posible adquirirla en distintos herbolarios de forma deshidratada o incluso en cápsulas de forma concentrada como complemento alimentario.
It can be consumed raw, in salads and it is possible to acquire it in different herbalists in dehydrated form or even in concentrated capsules as a food supplement.
Entre sus propiedades destacan su acción anticoagulante, estimulando la circulación de la sangre, así como interesante antibiótico y antiinflamatorio.
Among its properties are its anticoagulant action, stimulating blood circulation, as well as interesting antibiotic and anti-inflammatory.
Nacen en las cortezas de los árboles, por lo que se trata de un hongo saprófito (se nutre de madera especialmente de troncos en estado de putrefacción).
They are born in the bark of trees, so it is a saprophytic fungus (it feeds on wood, especially on rotting trunks).
Por último recordad que nunca debemos consumir una seta de la cual no estemos totalmente seguros.
Finally remember that we should never consume a mushroom of which we are not completely sure.
