RECIPE TIPS
HEARTS OF PALM

Hearts of palm are eaten with everything in Brazil: salads, salsas, even soups. A sort of cross between an artichoke and celery, their acidic taste is unique, and it’s easy to tart up a salad with their creamy texture. The young shoots are farmed and harvested before they grow into palm trees, so they are completely ethical to buy and eat.
