bamboo shoot tip?

Question

I like eating bamboo shoot tips but I have no idea how to prepare. I bought plastic preserved bambooshoot tips. Any kind of recipes welcome

Answer 1

Bamboo has almost no taste of its own. In S.E. Asian cooking it is used as a "filler", an ingredient to give a dish structure.
Bamboo and tofu are ideal fillers, because they absorb the taste of the dish they are added to.
My favorite bamboo dish is Vietnamese Bun Mang Vit soup, a duck soup with noodles and bamboo.

Answer 2

Rinse before using. Canned bamboos shoots are pre-cooked and need only to be heated. Fresh bamboo shoots should be boiled until tender, husked, then cut up.
