Jiang sun is ma bamboo shoot cut at the joints, soaked, salted briefly and then packed into jars with rice wine and green koji for two months. In the form made with dochi (fermented soybeans), Lactobacillus plantarum takes over within a day.

At a glance
Jiang sun is ma bamboo shoot cut at the joints, soaked, salted briefly and then packed into jars with rice wine and green koji for two months. In the form made with dochi (fermented soybeans), Lactobacillus plantarum takes over within a day. Made in 5 steps over 2 months. The longest step, steep in the jar, takes 2 months (Wang Qiyan (Tanzi Farmers' Association) 2006). Lactobacillus plantarum does most of the fermenting.
Dochi jiang sun (the form studied by Chen et al. 2010)Shoots fermented with dochi (fermented soybeans) in a bucket. The mixed lactic bacteria of the dochi and shoots were mostly replaced by L. plantarum after 1 day; 57 LAB isolates were collected.
Safety
As a general hazard of bamboo shoots, a 2026 study of fermented bamboo shoots reports that raw shoots contain cyanogenic glycosides such as taxiphyllin, which can release toxic hydrogen cyanide if the shoots are not properly processed. The same paper says fermentation helps reduce these compounds through plant and microbial enzymes, but it studied another product. The method on this page soaks the raw shoots for 2 hours and has no boiling step [moa2006], and no source we read measures cyanide in jiang sun, so do not assume steeping removes it. Hong Kong's Centre for Food Safety advises peeling, soaking, cutting small and cooking bamboo shoots thoroughly in boiling water [cfs-hk]. Boil the pieces before eating them.
The Ministry of Agriculture article describes a Tanzi farm women's group making jiang sun from lower-grade ma bamboo shoots in the early 2000s, as a taste remembered from grandmothers' time.
