I don't know since when, the dried bamboo shoots have never been in the warehouse. Often this batch has not been eaten, and the next batch will follow. I have never tossed about dried bamboo shoots, and I have never brought it into my sight. After going through the boxes and cabinets that day, a package of dried bamboo shoots appeared to be damp. The weather is gloomy and there is no way to expose it. Simply send it out.
Then immediately put into action. Although the dried bamboo shoots can be soaked in water without washing, they can't help but wash them with water. Change the water daily for three days. In fact, it doesn't have to be so long, just because I don't have time, I don't want to make it, lazy. As long as you see that the color of the water is still changing, continue to let it soak, and let's talk about it when you want to do it. On the third day of soaking, I saw that the color of the water didn't seem to change anymore. I thought I had to fix it sooner or later, so don't delay. Instead of cooking in a large pot in the usual way, the pressure cooker was used on high heat to SAIC and pressed for 40 minutes. The dry weight of the bamboo shoots returned to the softness before drying out. However, after all, it could not be restored to the smoothness and tenderness of the bamboo shoots, but it still left the nicks of the wind and frost of the years.
Such a big pile, send more, cut into sections, store in the refrigerator and eat slowly. . . . . "

Tips:
There is no need to rinse before soaking.
The soaking time needs to be adjusted according to the draft of the bamboo shoots. If the temperature is high in summer, you need to change the water frequently or soak in the refrigerator to avoid spoilage.
If you use ordinary pots and pans, you need to extend the cooking time appropriately.
