Ingredient: Pak Choi


Sesame Bok Choy and Shiitake Mushrooms

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.


Mirin-Braised Pak Choi and Shiitake Mushrooms

Mirin is a sweet rice wine that tastes great in this dish, but you can get by with white wine and a little sugar. Silken tofu is lovely here. The sauce is subtle, it’s a nice way to highlight your ingredients without too much getting in the way.
