It’s Bamboo Shoots Hunting Time!

It’s not exactly you hunt bamboo shoots but you are going to find them in bamboo bush like a little kid, and dig them in order to have a taste of nice spring delights!It’s an enjoyable event we love in Spring.

Bamboos are originally from China but they have been familiar with Japanese for a long time. Before plastic tools were utilized, numerous tools had been produced by bamboo. Even after such convenient innovation, we still use brooms, tea whisks and much more made from bamboo.

Spring is the time when we have countless fresh herbs and produce blessed with nature like bamboo shoots, wild plants, horsetails, butterburs sprouts…they are good for tempra, simmering, and grills. At the bamboo fields in Asuka, Yamato, big bamboo shoots grow and many of our host families have the field. In addition, YANT provides the special Bamboo Shoots Hunting Tour! You can dig them, cook them as fresh as you’ve never tasted before! Please come and taste the best that you cannot get anywhere else!
