Jianduxian means simmering spring bamboo shoots with ham, bacon or fresh meat. Yangzhou people call it Yipuxian. To make a delicious pot of pickled food, you are also very particular about the ingredients. Choose spring bamboo shoots that are just on the market. The spring bamboo shoots at this time are crisp and sweet. Very tender, no strings. Among them, Fuyang bamboo shoots and Tianmu mountain bamboo shoots are the most suitable. For bacon, you must choose southern cured bacon or Jinhua ham instead of bacon, especially smoked bacon, which will change the taste. Some methods also add tofu knots. Both are fine. I have a bland taste, so I don’t need to add any seasonings, even salt, and it tastes delicious.
