【How to Choose Bamboo Shoots】
1. Look at the base of the bamboo shoots. The "moles" on the base should be red, indicating that the shoots are fresh and tender;
2. Look at the nodes. The closer the nodes are to each other, the more tender the shoots;
3. Look at the shell. The shell of the bamboo shoots should be fresh yellow or pale yellow with a hint of pink. The shoots with intact and smooth shells are of better quality;
4. The shoots should feel plump and have a white color like jade.
