Fashion Factor

Bamboo fibre is every designer’s dream fabric as it has excellent colour absorption, fast-drying capabilities, unimaginable softness and bamboo textiles drape elegantly around the body. It is wrinkle resistant and does not have washing regulations like silk or cashmere. Clothes made of bamboo can easily be tossed into a washer and dryer, making it low maintenance apparel. Environment-friendly T- shirts, bathrobes and more, made out of bamboo by-products are very popular among nature lovers and eco conscious fashionistas.

 

Culinary Charisma

A not so famous yet an interesting aspect of the bamboo is its shoot. Not many are aware that young bamboo shoots are used in various dishes a la baby corn. Does the word stir fry ring a bell? Most Chinese dishes consist of bamboo shoots – stir fry, pickled, stock and more. These shoots are of two kinds: winter shoots are considered to be a delicacy and the spring shoots are considered as longer and tougher and stay well in the fridge with a regular water change.
As India wakes up to the miracles of this multifaceted grass, canned bamboo shoots are adorning the shelves in most leading departmental stores now.
