In early May in the Mid-Atlantic Piedmont region, I visit a bamboo patch just beginning to send up its Spring shoots. This video is a thorough class on selecting, harvesting, preparing, cooking, & eating wild bamboo shoots (the purple and gold striped kind!) of the Mid-Atlantic and Southeastern regions.
This video mentions meristem. For a lesson on meristem, watch my video "Lessons in Meristem & Heartbreak" at the 30 minute mark.
Terms mentioned in this video:
meristem
node
cyanogenic glycoside
species
variety
Poaceae (the grass family)
anti-nutrient
