My sister brought me some fresh bamboo shoots from her MIL house, i am glad that i can cook with these fresh bamboo shoots as those selling in wet market has some kind of awful smell...
Ya, one thing i need to clarify here. Recently i just realized that i should not write "dark soy sauce" in my recipe, actually i was meant " thick caramel sauce" as I just direct translated from Chinese 黑酱油. They are both difference sauces. I think only Malaysia and Singapore use widely of "thick caramel sauce" but US & Europe hardly find this thick caramel sauce. This is the thick caramel sauce i use:-

ReplyDeletehaha. i discovered this sauce recently and found that it taste so nice. So i start replacing with it when your receipe said 'dark soy sauce'. 误打误撞竟撞对了. :-)
ReplyDeleteI've never eaten bamboo shoot. No idea how it taste like, but I've heard how it smells like if the bamboo is not fresh.
ReplyDeletelooks good yep don't think I have seen that before
ReplyDelete哇。。这个很下饭。。好吃！
ReplyDeleteyum yum, I loves the chicken wings delicious looking
ReplyDeleteI've eaten once from a Malay stall. It smells like "pee". Hence I have no idea how the fresh one taste like.
ReplyDeleteI love bamboo shoot, but after since we experienced our neighbour giving us some bamboo shoot which were not very fresh and caused the whole house smelly, no one is willing to taste bamboo shoot at home anymore, ha ha ha. It's really stink if not fresh, I still love bammboo shoot though.
ReplyDelete有酱汁的，
ReplyDelete一定很好捞饭。
我和家人都喜欢。
drooling......can invite me to your home for dinner ? hahaha
ReplyDeleteI love fresh bamboo shoots! I bet your braised bamboo shoot taster yummy good with the caramel sauce and chicken! Thanks for sharing this delicious family recipe. ;)
ReplyDelete我带着白饭来了:P
ReplyDeletei also used this brand of thick caramel sauce....never change other brand...
ReplyDeleteYour chicken looks delicious. This is perfect with a bowl of steamed rice. I like bamboo shoot and you are right, it is not often that we can find the really fresh good ones from the market.
ReplyDeleteThis would be the feeling of home!
ReplyDelete我都是用南乳和腩肉来焖竹笋的，最近母亲还教我用沙丁鱼来焖。用鸡翼来焖还是从你这里看到的。
ReplyDeleteSonia, My hubby definitely like this dish very much as he loves to bamboo shoot. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteoh I absolutely hate the smell of bamboo shoot.. I just dont get it . hahah
ReplyDeleteBut it looks like potato in the dish :P
Dinner time, drooling over it... keke...
ReplyDeleteI love bamboo shoots, esp with thai curry. I usually used the canned version:(
ReplyDeleteI always eat bamboo shoot with pork but not chicken. This sounds good! Btw i use the same dark soy sauce as u :)
ReplyDeleteIt has been a long while since I last had fresh bamboo shoots. My grandma used to cook this so often for us as we had bamboo plants at the back of our house.
ReplyDeleteSonia, I'm not sure why ppl complaining about the smell of the shoots. It tastes so sweet and crunchy. I think the one they had are not properly washed or cleaned. According to the lady at the market place, the shoots need a serious washing ... just like those pig stomach.:o)
ReplyDeleteGood night,
Kristy
Hi Sonia! I think Japanese soy sauce won't make these chicken and bamboo shoot this nice brown even we add more soy sauce. I have boiled bamboo shoot in my fridge that I haven't figure it out how to cook yet. Your recipe looks really delicious!!
ReplyDeleteI always braised chicken or pork with mushroom only, never thought of cooking them with bamboo shoot. Thanks for sharing. The dish looks yummy.
ReplyDeleteWow ~ that sounds so flavorful n perfect ~ lovely shots too :)
ReplyDeleteUS Masala
ooh this looks delicious and so flavorful!
ReplyDeleteThis is delicious, I just knew that the dark soya sauce and thick caramel sauce is two different sauce.Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteGot to check out this Chinese caramel sauce at our nearby Asian grocery store. Your dish look so delicious!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a homey dish! It looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a homey and delicious dish. It helps to lightly boil the bamboo shoots first to get rid of the smell.
ReplyDeleteI am not familiar in cooking with bamboo shoots...but this looks nice!
ReplyDeleteSo homey and so good with steamed rice! I have heard about this thick caramel sauce back in Singapore too - quite good to use for braising meat indeed.
ReplyDeleteNice one. Long time didn't try this stuff.
ReplyDeleteI love the texture of bamboo shoots. It's not easy to get the fresh on in Subang, so I usually resort to the canned ones. I agree with you the one sold in our wet market has a kind of strong smell.
