Homemade Dried Winter Bamboo Shoots
Overview
I especially love eating bamboo shoots. Fresh bamboo shoots only last for a short time. What I want to eat all year round is dried bamboo shoots. I used to buy dried bamboo shoots, but I was often frightened by additives and the like, and I was always afraid that I would buy something unsafe. If you make it yourself, it will be affected by the weather, and it will break if you don't do it well. With the ACAGT400 oven, it has a low-temperature baking function, and the temperature can be selected from 30 degrees to 230 degrees. After it arrived at my house, I bought 10 kilograms of winter bamboo shoots and ate part of it. Most of it was used to make dried bamboo shoots. I made dried bamboo shoots by myself. The dried bamboo shoots were very good in terms of dryness and color. No longer afraid of dried bamboo shoots with additives. After it was done, I soaked some for cooking. One word: great! Winter bamboo shoots are shoots that develop from the lateral buds of the underground stems (bamboo whips) of Phyllostachys edulis (Moso bamboo) around the beginning of autumn. Because they have not yet been unearthed, the bamboo shoots are tender and tender, so they are a dish that people like to eat very much.

-
The baked bamboo shoots are semi-dry, so they can be dried outside in the sun. Semi-dry bamboo shoots will not go bad even if the weather is not very good and they need to be dried for two more days. Wet blanched bamboo shoots are easily damaged if dried directly in the sun. Because the temperature in the north is still too low during the season for drying winter bamboo shoots, they cannot be dried quickly
-
Semi-dried bamboo shoots can be dried in one day if the sun is good. The sun here is not very good, so I dried them for two days and they are very dry. You can store them in a sealed bag

You can also bake it directly at low temperature, which takes 2 and a half to 3 hours. In order to save energy, half-baking and half-drying is more appropriate. It is more suitable to bake at a low temperature of 90 degrees. The one on the left was baked directly at 100 degrees for 2 and a half hours, and it was a bit burnt. If it's 90 degrees, it's just right. The half on the right is completely baked at 90 degrees, and the color is very beautiful
