Compared with hay, fresh Cordyceps sinensis is not easy to fake. Fresh Cordyceps sinensis can be bought on the market in May and June every year. After this period, it is basically out of stock, so everyone should be careful.

The most important thing to pay attention to when storing fresh Cordyceps sinensis is its storage. Due to its high moisture content, it is more likely to mold and deteriorate than dried Cordyceps sinensis. Here are some storage methods for Cordyceps sinensis:

1. Vacuum seal the package and then put it in the freezer for use at any time. Try to isolate it from the air and keep it below zero degrees, keeping the temperature between -2 degrees and -5 degrees Celsius, which can inhibit the activity of microorganisms and bacteria to the greatest extent. It can be stored in a vacuum seal for 3 months to half a year.

2. For frozen storage, fresh Cordyceps sinensis should be placed in the freezer layer of the refrigerator, rather than the refrigerator layer, and the temperature should be controlled below zero degrees. This is because low temperature can delay the loss of active ingredients in Cordyceps sinensis and effectively prevent Cordyceps sinensis from mildew.

Cordyceps sinensis should be eaten immediately after thawing. Put it in the freezer of the refrigerator, take it out to thaw each time you eat it, and once thawed, eat it immediately. Because fresh Cordyceps will continue to breathe and grow after thawing, in order to avoid the loss of nutrients in Cordyceps, it can only be taken out when eating and should be eaten as soon as possible after thawing. Do not store fresh Cordyceps for a long time. The storage time of fresh Cordyceps should not exceed 1 year. If you don’t buy a lot of fresh Cordyceps sinensis, it’s best to eat it as soon as possible. If you purchase a certain amount of Cordyceps sinensis, choose the correct storage method to store it.
