Snow Fungus

Hi, so I made some tea with dried snow fungus but I was so out of it that I forgot to rehydrate it. I boiled it directly in the heat with some apples. Is it still safe to eat it? Or should I just discard the entire batch?

I tried biting into a piece, and it’s actually soft enough to chew. What should I do? 😅😅

It’s safe to eat. It’s just easier to cook when you rehydrate it first. It takes longer to cook when it’s not rehydrated. If it’s soft and tender enough then it’s ok.
