Cooks&Co Hearts of Palm 400g

Hearts of Palm

Cooks&Co Hearts of Palm 400g are a wonderfully versatile store cupboard ingredient with a delicate flavour and tender yet crisp texture. Harvested from the inner core of certain palm trees, hearts of palm have long been enjoyed across South America and are becoming increasingly popular in Mediterranean-inspired cooking, fresh salads and light lunches.

Ready to eat straight from the can, they have a mild flavour that pairs beautifully with olive oil, lemon juice, fresh herbs and balsamic vinegar. Slice them into colourful salads, layer them onto pizzas, stir them through pasta dishes or add them to quiches for extra texture. Their subtle taste also works well alongside avocado, tomatoes, roasted peppers and grilled vegetables. At i4C, we love keeping a tin in the cupboard because they're an easy way to add something a little different to everyday meals without any extra preparation.
