Water chestnuts are the corms of water grasses that grow underwater submerged in the mud and are known for their delicious sweet taste and crunchy consistency. In Chinese cuisine they are used for both spicy and sweet dishes. Twin Elephants Water Chestnuts can be used for the preparation of a crispy dim sum filling, for san choy bau (basket of lettuce with meat filling) and all kinds of stir fries. Moreover, the delicious water chestnuts are very popular in desserts (e.g. tab tim grob).
