Edible Uses

Young shoots - raw or cooked. They have very little bitterness, even when eaten raw. The canes of plants grown in Britain are about 25mm in diameter, though they can reach up to 4cm in diameter. The shoots are harvested in the spring when they are about 8cm above the ground, cutting them about 5cm below soil level. Young culms are green with yellow grooves.
