VeganMoFo #3: Hearts of Palm, They Fade…
October 3, 2009

I’ve attempted to cook with hearts of palm before when I, convinced they’d mock the texture of mollusks often added to soup… added them to a soup recipe. That was a bomb-diggity. These buoyant cylinders don’t absorb much flavor. But when I saw this post from Peta’s recipe blog, which also treated them kinda like a mollusk and pan-seared em, I thought I’d give it a try. These were pretty good! They kind of needed a dipping sauce but I hadn’t the patience to concoct one. Next time. Anyway, I’d love to find even more uses for these odd palm tree tubes. Does anyone have any recipes or ideas?
