Instead of Canned bamboo shoots
Bamboo shootFresh shoot, same weight; slice thin and boil 10–15 minutes, changing the water, to drive off bitterness before use.
Fermented bamboo shootsUse half the weight, rinse well and taste; much stronger, sour and pickled, so it suits pork and fish dishes better than mild curries.
