Casserole of Shrimp and Hearts of Palm (Camarões com Palmito)

Content: They can also be used in cooked dishes, like stir-fries, or this Brazilian Casserole of Shrimp and Hearts of Palm (Camarões com Palmito). Hearts of palm also have similarity to the texture of crab or lobster meat, and I have used them chopped in place of those shellfish in different recipes, like crab cakes (but with hearts of palm) or hot dips. They are an interesting substitute if you are looking to make a dish vegetarian or vegan. You could use hearts of palm instead of artichokes in this hot cheesy dip as well (vegetarian, but not vegan!). Will Harvesting Hearts of Palm Kill the Palm Tree? It depends. There are some harvesting techniques that will not kill the tree, but if you are a regular hearts of palm consumer, you may want to look into the harvesting practices of your favorite brand. There are some new growing and harvesting methods that produce more hearts of palm from one plant, without doing harm to the plant itself. Can You Buy Fresh Hearts of Palm? Fresh hearts of palm are very hard to find.
