How to preserve fresh bamboo shoots

When fresh bamboo shoots grow in large quantities, many people will buy a lot of bamboo shoots and take them home. At this time, they are usually pickled or made into dried bamboo shoots. Fresh bamboo shoots will quickly lose moisture in their natural state, which greatly affects the taste when eaten. Therefore, when preserving fresh bamboo shoots, you can wrap them with plastic wrap and put them in the refrigerator.

How to store bamboo shoots for the longest time and how to keep them fresh after picking them? I will tell you the best way, which is also a traditional way. Use a large container to hold some dry fine sand, then bury the bamboo shoots with the skin on deeply in it, and then spray a small amount of water on it to lock in the moisture. But there must not be too much water, otherwise it will easily rot. This method can generally be preserved for about half a month. Of course, if you must use the refrigerator, it is recommended to freeze it, but after peeling off the skin, leave a few layers of skin and then reshape it when you want to eat it. How to peel bamboo shoots: First, cut off the tail of the bamboo shoots with a knife. Hold the bamboo shoots in your left hand with the big end on top. Take the knife in your right hand and cut the skin of the bamboo shoots from top to bottom. Be careful not to use too much force, just cut through all the skin. Put down the knife, and use both hands to stretch along the cut to both sides. All the skin will be taken off at once, without having to peel it layer by layer.
