Hearts of Palm is an ingredient I became infatuated with a few years back when Costco started carrying them in big jars. And I have LOVED hearts of palm for years and years now! (Sadly I haven’t been able to find those big jars of palm hearts at Costco for several years now, sob!)

What are Hearts of Palm?

Hearts of palm are a slightly-crunchy vegetable that’s harvested from the center of domesticated palm trees. They used to be a controversial ingredient, but now harvesting methods don’t damage the trees and wild palms are protected in many places. And Hearts of Palm are so delicious! Here’s more about Hearts of Palm and how to use them.

Where can you buy Hearts of Palm?

Most grocery stores will sell Hearts of Palm, sold near the olives and artichokes in cans and jars, although they are often pricey at a regular grocery store. You can buy hearts of Palm at Amazon.com (affiliate link) and occasionally you’ll find some there that are a bit more inexpensive. (Amazon even carries those two packs of big jars like I loved so much at Costco, but they were definitely more of a bargain at Costco, of course!)
