About Bamboo shoots, cooked, boiled, drained, with salt
Bamboo shoots are the tender young sprouts of the bamboo plant, harvested just as they emerge from the soil, before they grow tough and woody. A staple of East and Southeast Asian cooking, they have a mild, slightly sweet flavor and a crisp, crunchy texture that soaks up the seasonings around them. Bamboo shoots are very low in calories and offer fiber and potassium. Fresh shoots must be peeled of their fibrous outer layers and boiled before eating to remove natural compounds and bitterness, which is why they are most often sold pre-cooked, sliced and canned, or vacuum-packed for convenience.
They are added to stir-fries, curries, soups, spring rolls, and noodle dishes, lending their signature crunch. Once a can is opened, store leftover bamboo shoots submerged in fresh water in the refrigerator, changing the water daily, and use them within a few days.
