Badia Heart of Palms 14 oz Can

The classic Cuban salad ingredient — palmitos by Badia, 14 oz single can

Hearts of palm (palmitos) are the tender inner core of palm trees, a Cuban-Latin salad essential with a subtly sweet, slightly crisp texture similar to artichoke hearts. Badia's 14 oz can is the standard household size — enough for one classic ensalada de palmitos or a salad-and-ceviche combo.

How to serve palmitos

4. For a quick salad — toss palmitos with avocado, red onion, cilantro, and a citrus vinaigrette
5. For ceviche — combine palmitos with shrimp, lime juice, red onion, jalapeño, and cilantro

Single can vs Pack of 3 — which should I buy?
