Balsam fir shoot

Balsam fir shoots are an ingredient of choice for lovers of inventive cuisine. These tender, juicy buds have a sweet, resinous flavor that pairs beautifully with savory and sweet dishes. Use them to flavor your sauces, dressings and marinades, or to add a touch of originality to your desserts. They are also delicious grilled or sautéed, accompanied by vegetables or meat.

Feel free to use them as a substitute ingredient for spinach or tree saplings.
