About bok choi
Also known as pak choi, this leafy-green Chinese vegetable belongs to the cabbage family. It is best suited to brief stir-frying or steaming to keep its mild flavor. It is also recommended that the leafy portion be cooked separately from the stems as the leaves cook much more quickly.
