Hangzhou Eye episode 77: Bamboo shoots in Hangzhou
Every year around the solar term of Insects Awaken, Hangzhou residents make a home-cooked dish: braised spring bamboo shoots.
Hangzhou people are famous for their love of bamboo shoots and they are said to consume an average of 60 tons of bamboo shoots a day during harvest season.
For Hangzhou locals, a cup of Longjing tea and a bowl of braised bamboo shoots are indispensable parts of spring.
Starting June 17, a brand new bilingual program entitled Hangzhou Eye will offer the world new insight into Hangzhou, East China's Zhejiang province.
