A delicacy. It has a soft, buttery, crisp and crunchy texture. Similar to artichoke hearts or white asparagus, but way better!
Palm heart is also called Lobster of Vegetables, Swamp Cabbage and Burglar's Thigh.
Great eaten raw in salads and as a snack, it also combines well with a soft cheese. Can also be baked, boiled, stir fried or braised.
Fresh palm heart has a much more subtle and attractive taste than the mushy pre-cooked canned version that most us have tried before. The process of canning destroys most of the charm of eating this vegetable.
Palm Heart is a vegetable harvested from the inner core and growing bud of certain palm trees. Very low in fat and calories.
Harvested from palms planted by Trikaya at our Pune farm, which throw side shoots after planting. These side shoots grow back again, so it is a sustainable form of harvesting palm heart unlike the palm hearts cut from the wild.

Fresh Bamboo shoot is delicious in any stir-fry but please note that it cannot be eaten raw - it can be toxic.
Peel the skin, cut and soak, then boil it for half an hour to remove any bitterness. Brine it or slice and use in stir-fries.
You can add vinegar and/or sliced red chillies while boiling it. It is used a lot in Chinese cuisine as well as in North Eastern cooking and also in Konkani cooking.
Seasonal: Available June-September

Harvested when young and tender and brined for convenience. A staple of Chinese cuisine, bamboo shoots are best cut into slices and added to stir fries with other vegetables.
Drain from the brine wash under fresh water and then cut and add them to your stir fries, stews or soups.
Taste better after cooking as they loose their slight bitter raw taste and are appreciated for their bite and slight sweet flavour.
