Recently, wild bamboo shoots have grown wildly in the mountains, and there are so many of them that I can't eat them all. Such a good thing can't be wasted, so I pulled some back and made dried bamboo shoots.

This dried bamboo shoot is not only easy to preserve, but also can be sold for more than 100 yuan a pound in the market, and it is too cost-effective to make it yourself. Today, I will share with you the detailed method of making dried bamboo shoots, so that everyone can understand and learn.

In this Qingming season, there are too many small bamboo shoots on the mountain, we carry a basket to the mountain to pull, when pulling, we must choose those that do not have long insects, the length is moderate, not big or small, too small is not easy to peel.

After pulling back the small bamboo shoots, peeling the bamboo shoots is a big trouble, which can not be lazy, you have to manually peel them one by one.

You can ask the elderly and children in the family, as well as some neighbors and friends to help peel the bamboo shoot skin, after peeling off the bamboo shoot skin, we have to use a large basin to pour these peeled bamboo shoots into the basin and clean it. When we encounter some older ones, we don't want to cut them off.

After cleaning the small bamboo shoot, take it out, load it with a bamboo sieve, and drain the water.

If the bamboo shoot is relatively large, cut it directly into slices. For some small bamboo shoots, there is no need to cut them, and they are boiled whole.

I'm preparing a large iron pot to decide what kind of container to use according to the number of bamboo shoots, and if there are few bamboo shoots, just use a small pot. If there are many bamboo shoots, you need to use a large iron pot, put a shelf in it, put some water in the pot, put these washed bamboo shoots on this shelf, and then cover the lid, burn the fire below, and cook these bamboo shoots.

Cook for about 15 to 0 minutes, and the bamboo shoots will be cooked. Then use a sieve to take out these cooked bamboo shoots, drain the water, and make it easy to dry later.

Put the bamboo sieve in a ventilated and sunny place, it is best to build a shelf, and lay these drained bamboo shoots on top of this bamboo sieve, try not to overlap, so that it can be fully evenly dried and easier to dry.

After two or three hours, we turn it over again, and dry the other side as well, so that it can be dried.

After two or three days of drying, this bamboo shoot is basically dry, pick up a small bamboo shoot with your hand, and break it with a gentle pinch, which proves that the moisture has been dried, and we can put it away.

Sun-dried small bamboo shoots are easy to regain moisture and are also easy to mold, so we have to use this nylon bag to pack, or use some jars to pack, pack it well, tie the bag tightly, put it in the place of rice or rice, or put it in a ventilated and dry place, avoid direct sunlight, so that the dried bamboo shoots are not easy to mold.

If you leave it for a long time, you should also take it out and take a look, and if it starts to mold, you can take it out again and put it in the sun to dry.

In winter, there are no fresh bamboo shoots to eat, we can take some dried bamboo shoots out, boil a pot of boiling water, put the dried bamboo shoots in a basin, to soak the flowers, if you want to be fast, we can also use the pot to cook it, boil it soft, and then clean it to cut some bacon, or pork belly for stir-frying.

Stir-fried bacon with dried bamboo shoots is very delicious, you can also use it to stew pork, stew pork ribs to eat, the flavor is unique, you can also add some daylily in it, the taste is even more delicious.

From bamboo shoots to dried bamboo shoots, it is more troublesome to process, and it takes dozens of pounds of fresh bamboo shoots to dry a pound of dried bamboo shoots, so the price of this kind of dried bamboo shoots in the market is also very high, selling for more than 100 yuan a pound.

Rural people don't want to sell it yet, they prefer to eat it themselves, because they know that it is too difficult to process bamboo shoots, first of all, they must pick the bamboo shoots back from the deep mountain bamboo forest, and then peel off the outer skin one by one, and then wash, cook and dry, which requires a lot of sweat and time.

The people who bought it felt that 100 yuan a pound was very expensive, but in fact, for the processing people, they were not willing to sell.

This rainy season is the peak season for the growth of wild bamboo shoots in rural areas. If you also have this kind of small bamboo shoots in your hometown, you can go outside and pull some back and make it into dried bamboo shoots, so that you can eat it slowly in the future.
