The invention relates to a bamboo shoot sulfur-free drying process, which is characterized by comprising the following steps: (1) raw material preparation, during which fresh phyllostachys praecox shoots with a base part of which the diameter is greater than 3 centimeters, washing the fresh phyllostachys praecox shoots to remove impurities, removing sheaths, cutting off aged parts, and cutting the shoots along longitudinal axes to obtain bamboo shoot blocks; (2) soaking the bamboo shoot blocks in color protecting solution for 20 to 90 minutes, wherein the ratio of the bamboo shoot blocks to the color protecting solution is 1g:3-4ml; (3) blanching color protection treatment, during which blanching the bamboo shoot blocks, which are soaked in the color protecting solution, in the color protecting solution at 80 to 100 DEG C for 2 to 10 minutes, and immediately washing the bamboo shoot blocks with water after the blanching; (4) permo-treatment, during which the bamboo shoot blocks, which are blanched for color protection, are soaked in osmotic solution for 20 to 40 minutes, and the ratio of the bamboo shoot blocks to the osmotic solution is 1g:3-4ml; (5) drying; and (6) packaging to obtain dry bamboo shoot products. The dry shoots prepared by the invention is short in rehydration time, convenient, sanitary and long in storage life and provides good raw material guarantee for the subsequent bamboo shoot deep processing.
