While the chayote fruit is well-known, its tender shoots and leaves (Pucuk Labu Siam) are a culinary delicacy. This leafy green has a mild, sweet, and slightly nutty flavor with a wonderful, crisp-tender texture when cooked. A favorite in many Asian and Latin American cuisines, it is typically stir-fried with garlic or cooked in light, coconut-based soups. We harvest the youngest, most tender shoots to guarantee quality.

Tender and Delicious: Chayote shoots are a delicacy. They are tender and have a lovely, mild flavor, great for a simple stir-fry. These were very fresh. An excellent product.
