About Bamboo shoots, canned, drained solids
Bamboo shoots are the young, edible sprouts of the bamboo plant, harvested before they toughen, then sliced and canned so they keep their crunch. Fresh shoots need careful boiling to remove a natural bitterness, so the canned, ready-cut version is what most cooks reach for.
They are one of the lightest foods in the pantry, only about 19 calories per 100 grams, mostly water, with a little fiber and potassium and, unusually for a canned vegetable, very little sodium once drained. Their appeal is texture rather than nutrition: a clean, crisp bite that holds up to cooking.
A backbone of Chinese, Thai and Japanese cooking, they go into stir-fries, curries and soups, soaking up the surrounding flavors while keeping their snap.
