Uses & Benefits

How to Use

Simmer 5 g slices in 300 ml water for 20 minutes for a mellow cordyceps tea.

Blend brewed tea 1 : 1 with espresso for a mushroom-coffee twist.

Add rehydrated strips to chicken broth or pho for savory depth.

Grind dry slices (½ tsp) into smoothie bowls or protein shakes.

Infuse 10 g slices in 40 % alcohol (1 : 5) for a four-week tincture.

Key Benefits

Contains ≈ 3 % cordycepin plus adenosine—studied for endurance support.

≈ 25 g β-glucan polysaccharides per 100 g for balanced immune nutrition.

19 g complete protein and all essential amino acids per 100 g.

Low fat (< 3 g/100 g), keto-adaptable, naturally caffeine-free.

What nutrients and bioactive compounds (cordycepin, β-glucans) are present in dried cordyceps slices?

Independent assays show our slices contain about 3 % cordycepin (30 mg per gram) and 25 % β-glucans—polysaccharides valued for balanced immune nutrition. Cordycepin is a natural analog of adenosine and is widely researched for supporting healthy energy metabolism and cellular resilience, while β-glucans interact with pattern-recognition receptors on immune cells. A 5 g tea serving provides roughly 750 mg β-glucans and 150 mg cordycepin—adequate for functional-food routines. Slow simmering (20 minutes, 1 : 60 solid-to-water) extracts these actives without degrading flavor.

Claim-strength scale – High = multiple human studies; Moderate = a few trials; Emerging = early lab data.

How many calories, protein, and fiber are in 10 g of dried cordyceps, and how does C. militaris compare to C. sinensis?

Ten grams deliver 29 kcal, 1.9 g protein, 0.3 g fat, 5.6 g carbs (net ≈ 4 g), and 1.5 g dietary fiber. Cultivated C. militaris shows similar macronutrients to wild C. sinensis but contains markedly more cordycepin and carotenoids, giving its signature orange hue. Sinensis is rare and costly; militaris offers a sustainable, lab-grown alternative with comparable β-glucans.

Claim strength: High

What’s a sensible daily amount of cordyceps—whole slices versus 8 : 1 extract powder?

Traditional tonic broths use 3–6 g dried slices simmered daily. Modern extracts concentrate actives ten-fold, so 0.5–1.5 g extract powder (≈ 5–15 g slice equivalent) is typical in supplements. For culinary use, start with a 5 g tea serving or 1 g powder in a smoothie; increase gradually while monitoring digestion. Exceeding 15 g slices per day may cause mild GI discomfort due to fiber.

Claim strength: Moderate

How do I brew a mild cordyceps tea without overpowering earthiness?

Use 5 g slices, rinse, then simmer in 300 ml water with a sliver of ginger for 20 minutes. Dilute the decoction 1 : 1 with oat milk and add a drizzle of honey. The ginger tempers earthiness, while milk proteins bind bitter nucleosides, yielding a balanced, slightly caramel brew.

Claim strength: High

What’s the best way to store dried cordyceps to keep color and aroma for 12 months?

Cordycepin and carotenoids fade with oxygen and light. Store slices in an opaque pouch with a 1 g oxygen absorber at < 60 % RH. For long-term storage, vac-seal 50 g mini-packs and freeze; thaw only what you need—the texture remains intact and color stays bright orange for a full year.

Culinary ideas: broths, coffee blends, or rice dishes—how should I rehydrate and cook with dried cordyceps?

Rehydrate 10 g slices in warm broth, then mince and stir into risotto for a saffron-like tint; simmer strips with chicken bones to enrich pho; grind 1 % w/w into espresso grounds for a nutty mushroom latte; or blend soft rehydrated pieces with cashews, garlic, and herbs to create a vibrant orange pesto for zucchini noodles.
