Discover Kitchen Items made from Bamboo

Bamboo can be used for other things around the kitchen. Don't limit yourself to cabinets and floors. This eco-friendly material is a familiar sight in oriental kitchens for good reason. It is plentiful and regrows easily. The wood is fairly sturdy yet flexible. It can stand a considerable amount of stress before it breaks. It is relatively easy to work and shape into usable forms.

A little bamboo fable

There is a folk tale about the bamboo. A wise man explained the virtue of the bamboo to his students:

    On sunny days people noticed the big woody trees standing tall and not the humble bamboo which bows to the ground. However, when the storm comes the powerful winds easily break the stiff tree trunks. The bamboo on the other hand sways and bends but do not break. Their flexibility conquers the wind.
.
I think of this story whenever I use wooden utensils in the kitchen. I become conscious of the spring in the bamboo. It's kind of reassuring to think these things are hard to break.
