Bamboo shoots, also known as bamboo sprouts, are the edible shoots of the bamboo plant. Bamboo shoots are not edible raw: they must undergo an intensive cleaning and cooking process to be made safe for consumption. These bamboo shoots are fully cleaned, cooked, and ready to be used. They are tender, crunchy, and a wonderful addition to numerous dishes. Cut this bamboo as desired and add it to your favorite dishes such as stir-fries, soups, and braises.
