1. Soak the bought bamboo shoots in clear water. During the soaking process, change the water every two hours, and the soaking time is not less than 24 hours, which is helpful to remove the bitter taste of dried bamboo shoots.
2. Add some water to the pot to boil, then add the purchased bamboo shoots, cook for one hour, and soak in water after taking out the pot.
3. Shell the bamboo shoots, add some water to the pot, then steam the bamboo shoots in the pot, take them out and wash them with water, so that the bitterness of the bamboo shoots can also be removed.
Of course, it is also important to choose good bamboo shoots.
Remember these skills when buying bamboo shoots: Look at the shell: the yellow one is the best, and its bamboo shoots are particularly fresh and tender. Look at bamboo shoots: the whiter the color, the more crisp and tender it is, followed by yellow and green. Look at bamboo shoots and bamboo shoots: bamboo shoots with close nodes are more tender. Look at bamboo shoots: bamboo shoots with big tails and small tails have many shells and few shells, and the taste is particularly crisp and sweet.
Here's how to do this:
We will peel off the skin of the bought bamboo shoots, remove the old man at the root, leaving only the whiter part inside, which is the most tender place, then cut the bamboo shoots in half vertically with a knife, put the bamboo shoots on the chopping board, mash them with the back of the knife, boil the water in the pot, add the prepared bamboo shoots, and add the right amount of salt to cook for about 10 minutes, so it is not needed when cooking.
Next, take out the blanched bamboo shoots and soak them in cold boiled water for 4 hours. It is best to use cold boiled water. If there is no water, you can change the water every 1 hour, and repeat this for about 4 times. In this way, you will find that the bitterness of spring bamboo shoots is obviously reduced, so eating spring bamboo shoots is actually more troublesome. I suggest you buy it the day before and blanch it first, so it will be convenient to cook the next morning.
