The flavor of the sauce is balanced, with spicy raw garlic and chili flakes, salty oyster sauce and light soy sauce, a little sugar, and a dash of tart rice vinegar. If you like, you can add a dash of Sichuan peppercorn oil for a little tingly numbing action!

The bamboo shoots we used in this recipe are spring bamboo shoots. As you can see, they don’t have the uniform look of the canned winter bamboo shoots that have been sliced into little rectangles.
They are thinner, with the segments of the shoots still visible. You can buy them in vacuum sealed packages, already cooked. There is no need to cook them again. You can dress them and enjoy them right out of the package.
The bamboo shoots are tender after boiling, but still have a bit of bite to them, giving them an overall refreshing texture.

If you can find fresh spring bamboo shoots, you can pre-cook them yourself in boiling water until tender. Do not eat them raw. They actually contain natural toxins (cooking neutralizes them).
As you can see in this recipe, rather than cutting or chopping the bamboo shoots, I’m tearing them by hand. The reason for this is to get lots of irregular shapes and frilly edges that cling to the sauce and give this dish a more pleasing, varied texture.
