Abstract: This study aimed to select a high-quality edible fungus to be cooked into soup stock with chicken, which is rich in taste compounds and highly nutritious and tastes delicious. Ten common commercial edible fungi: shiitake mushroom (Lentinula edodes), Flammulina velutipes (Fr.) Sing., Pleurotus eryngii (DC. ex Fr.) Quel., Agrocybe aegerita, Tricholomataceae, Pleurotus geesteranus, white beech mushroom (Hypsizygus marmoreus (Peck) H. E. Bigelow), brown beech mushroom (Hypsizygus marmoreus (Peck) H. E. Bigelow), Armillaria mellea and flower mushroom (Lentinula edodes) were separately cooked with three-yellow chicken to obtain soup stocks. The contents of free amino acids, nucleotides and soluble solids in the broths were determined, and equivalent umami concentration (EUC) was calculated. Also, sensory evaluation was carried out. The broth with flower mushroom scored highest in terms of the weighted average of all above parameters, being rich in nutrients and tasty.

Key words: edible fungi, soup stock, taste substances, equivalent umami concentration, sensory evaluation
