Bamboo Shoot (1kg)
Thai Name: Normai tong / หน่อไม้ไผ่ตง
A traditional Asian ingredient that is the ivory-colored young growth, harvested from a species of edible bamboo plants, which are prepared and served as a vegetable. Bamboo tips, which emerge from the ground at a very early age are cut off as pointed shoots that are wrapped in numerous overlapping sheaths. The sheaths cover a tender inner meat that can be prepared in much the same manner as bamboo stalks or long shoots.
The shoot is taken immediately after it begins to grow above ground, when it young, tender and crisp. Bamboo shoots are available fresh or canned. Quite often, canned shoots are cooked in seasonings, such as soy sauce.
Fresh produce from Thailand.
