NOTES

Have you ever cooked raw bamboo shoots? They have are strong with lye and need to be preboiled in water with rice bran. This is a very time-consuming process. If you use canned bamboo shoots, you can easily cook them, although the texture is not as good.
However, since I like to cook, I would like also to try cook from fresh bamboo shoots.
