1. Winter bamboo shoots are delicious. The taste of winter bamboo shoots is more tender, and it is not as strong as spring bamboo shoots in astringency. Winter bamboo shoots may grow slowly because they don't break through the soil, so they maintain a delicate taste at the bottom of the soil, while spring bamboo shoots feel a little old when chewed, which may be really "old".

2. Sometimes the bamboo shoots are not cooked, so your mouth is likely to be affected (astringent), so it is recommended to blanch the bamboo shoots with water when cooking them. Winter bamboo shoots taste more delicious than spring bamboo shoots, and you have to taste them yourself before you can find the difference. So to sum up, winter bamboo shoots are more tender and delicious than spring bamboo shoots, and they taste better than spring bamboo shoots!
