Banana leaves and bamboo for cooking

Alexandoy

Pathfinder
Banana leaves and bamboo abound in topical forests that's why campers and hunters have developed methods for using such. Like the bamboo cylinder, it can be a good substitute for the pot while the banana leaves can serve as the plates. But cooking meat or fish wrapped in banana leaves seem to enhance the flavor. That also applies to the bamboo that is best for cooking rice atop an open fire. And when there is nothing edible to eat, young bamboo shoots can be roasted or boiled for your meal. That is also true with the core of the banana plant, it can be cooked and eaten.
