Luckily, Xiaomi didn't know what Uncle Liu was thinking.
After Xiaoxue finished the housework, she came over to help clean up. There were too many bamboo shoots dug up yesterday; if they weren't processed quickly, they'd spoil or become too old.
The peeled bamboo shoot flesh was thrown into a side bowl of saltwater for soaking, which helped prevent discoloration.
After the shells were peeled from a large pile of bamboo shoots, there were still two large basins full.
The bamboo shoot flesh is washed once, then cooked directly. A little salt is added during cooking to remove the bitterness of the bamboo shoots.
Bring to a boil with cold water and let them cook for a moment longer before scooping them out.
Keep some for lunch, soaking them in cold water, and run the rest through cold water, then tear them into strips to dry in the sun on a basket sieve.
Cooked bamboo shoots can retain the most nutritional value.
