Recipes Using Bok Choy

Sesame Bok Choy and Shiitake Mushrooms

by
Ingredients: Bok Choy / Garlic / Mushrooms / Pak Choi

This takes the traditional stir fry of the bok choy to a fun level of taste sensation. The nuttiness of the sesame, the sweetness of the mirin and hoisin, the saltiness of the soy, the unami of the shiitake, it’s all good. Toss it with some rice or serve it on top and you have a yummy veggie thing going on.
