The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 32 calories for USDA reference amount at 72 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 44 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 1.7 g protein, 3 g fiber, and 84 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is mushrooms, shiitake, representing 99.7% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 2 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The reference amount and 1 cup answer different portion questions. Their values are scaled independently from the same per-100-gram source record.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 32–64 calories across the listed portions. That is a set of scaled examples—not a confidence interval, a recommendation, or a claim about the full universe of recipes.
Calculated from the smallest and largest usable household measures listed by USDA for this exact FNDDS record; not a confidence interval.
Record-specific decision brief
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2709943: “Mushroom, Asian, cooked, from dried.” It separates gram-weight arithmetic, corpus context, label signals, and record selection so one number does not have to answer four different questions.
01 · Portion arithmetic
For FDC 2709943, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “1 cup” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 75% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 54 g | 24 kcal | 1.3 g | 2.3 g | 63 mg |
| USDA reference amountExact record reference weight | 72 g | 32 kcal | 1.7 g | 3 g | 84 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 145 g | 64 kcal | 3.5 g | 6.1 g | 170 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 122 exact records in the Other vegetables and combinations USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2709943’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2709943’s 72 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Dietary fiber; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Sodium. Percentages use FDA label Daily Values, whose general “high” guide begins at 20% Daily Value. This is not an overall score or a personalized target.
Dietary fiber3 g
≈ 11% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium84 mg
≈ 4% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat0 g
≈ 0% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Mushroom, Asian, cooked, from dried,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2710035 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 54–90 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 24 kcal and 40 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 1.3 g more dietary fiber than “Asian stir fry vegetables, cooked, no added fat.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Mushrooms, shiitake supplies 99.7% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Keep this record when “Asian; cooked; from dried” fits. Inspect FDC 2710035 when “cooked; no added fat” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Only this record lists Mushrooms, shiitake. Only the comparison record lists Broccoli, cooked, as ingredient; Water Chesnut; Green pepper, cooked, as ingredient; Carrots, cooked, as ingredient. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
1 of the six displayed differences clears the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.
Formulation evidence
The formulation rows differ, but the source data do not isolate which component caused any nutrient difference. Input weights describe the standardized formulation—not final plated proportions.
Shared listed inputs: Salt, table.
Listed only in this record: Mushrooms, shiitake.
Listed only in the comparison: Broccoli, cooked, as ingredient; Water Chesnut; Green pepper, cooked, as ingredient; Carrots, cooked, as ingredient; and 1 more.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 72 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (145 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 64 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (127 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2709943 with FDC 2710035 at equal mass; use their 72 g and 64 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2709943 versus FDC 2710035 is a comparison of standardized source records—not a measurement of your meal, an overall food-quality rank, or proof that one input caused a difference.

Uncertainty, made actionable
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with portion size, raw versus cooked weight, cooking method, added fat or sauce.
For “Mushroom, Asian, cooked, from dried,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
Match the food state before matching the number. Cooking, draining, or added liquid can change grams and concentration even when the food name barely changes.
Match the method named by the source—such as baked, fried, boiled, or grilled—before scaling. Preparation can change both water content and the ingredients retained in the finished food.
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
How we estimated this
FDC 2709943 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 44 kcal per 100 g becomes 32 kcal at 72 g through nutrient per portion = nutrient per 100 g × portion grams ÷ 100; this page adds no second nutrition estimate.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” We display it as a USDA reference amount because it is a database comparison point—not a suggested portion or a claim about what most people should eat.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2709943
FNDDS food code: 75219100
The scaling for FDC 2709943 can be exact while the match to “Mushroom, Asian, cooked, from dried” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 72 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
