Bamboo is a giant grass that grows in warm places. It has many uses. Everything—from chairs and fishing rods to basket and paper can be made from it. And that’s not all. It can be eaten, too. People in China like bamboo shoots very much. They think the bamboo shoots are a delicious vegetable for parties and meals. In many parts of Asia, bamboo shoots are a favorite food. The winter shoots are the best because they are soft, with a white and green color. Usually they are boiled in water with some salt. Spring shoots are darker and harder, so they take longer to cook.
