What to do with Hearts of Palm
The palm comes from a distributor in Orlando Florida, they buy them directly from the farm in costa rica and they have a shelf life of 2 weeks from the harvest date. They have a website that ships directly to home chefs: www.vivagourmet.com go to the web site and pur hearts of palm into the search box. I am still waiting for Chef to write down the recipe. We have been very busy with Valentines day.

What to do with Hearts of Palm
I suggest you keep them in your cupboard for a rainy day, and use fresh hearts of palm for the recipes posted. The executive chef at our restaurant uses fresh hearts of palm on the menu and they are far superior to any canned product as you can only imagine. It is like comparing any fresh produce item to that which comes in a can~
