We all know how sturdy bamboo is as a construction material. I supposed once in your life you have also tried cooking in it. Are you also an avid bamboo eater? And I’m not talking to pandas here. 🙂
Bamboo shoot or labong, has its own ways of treating your palate with such flavor depending on how you would choose to cook it. Ginataang labong is probably the most common among us Batangueños. Add chili and oh how good an appetizer could that be!
Labong goes well with ginataang tilapia, agree? My dad would cut the bamboo shoot vertically so the rings would come out perfectly. Yum yum!
