Recipes Using Bok Choy

Bok Choy Salad

Another ingredient not on the traditional “staples” list, ramen noodles! They add a special crunch to this salad! Be careful, it’s addictive!


Bok Choy with Sesame Soy Glaze

A quick and simple sauté with an Asian flair featuring ginger, chicken stock, soy, sesame oil and brown sugar. Sneak some shiitake mushrooms in for an extra layer of flavor and heartiness!
