Golden Swan Brand Bamboo Shoot Slices 227 g

I do a lot of stirfrys and have used other brands which have tasted of nothing andHave been quite tough in texture,These Bamboo Shoots have a slight pleasant taste and are much softer, a very pleasantBamboo shoot

Good quality and fresh. I Like that after opening the tin I can immediately transfer it into a glass storage container and keep it for up to a week or so, providing I change the water daily.

was struggling to find these in any of my local supermarkets, would've had to go to a big one with a proper 'world food' section which just wasn't worth doing in lockdown, so ordered a few of these which arrived the next day with Prime, and was in my Thai green curry in time for dinner.

Bought 6 tins as I do enjoy vegetable stir fries 😋. On receipt all tins fine except for 1 that was dented, expiry date on tins was12.04.22. I used the dented tin yesterday evening and on opening the contents looked, smelt and tasted okay. The tin was packed with sufficient bamboo shoots to make a stir fry for two. For those who carb count, there was 140g of bamboo shoots when drained. Carb content = 9g per 100g weight (drained) or 13g carbohydrates/tin. I found they added the same taste and bulk that I enjoy in those I have bought from the local takeaway. I will definitely purchase these again in the future.

Not particularly tasty, but okay as ballast

Very good for keeping in the cupboard and chucking in a stir fry when you don’t have much fresh veg to bulk it out. These bamboo shoots hold the flavour of the dish much better than the brand sold at supermarkets. At under a quid a can I will be ordering some more as they are delicious.

Nice flavour still crunchy

Great for a DIY stir-fry, no match for the real thing made by a professional with a cooker like a blast furnace, but still good for a home cook.
