So at the CSA farm we belong to we got bok choy, I could use some recipes on what to do w/ it :LOL I've never eaten it before.
Anyone cook w/ it have a good simple recipe?

Hi, we just simply 1/2 or 1/4 the plant, give it a good wash and throw it in the end with a stirfry.. doesn't take too long at all.. very yummo with asparagus spears and beans.

Almost anything one can do with other cabbages, works with bok choy. I saute with onionsand garlic, and finish with Braggs. It is also good braised, for younger tots who can't chew. Sautee a largish onion in 2 tbsp neutral oil, like corn or canola. It should get slightly brown. Add the chopped cabbage and sautee on med high a couple mins., add one tablespoon caraway seeds, stir to mix, cover and reduce heat to low- med low on my old electric stove. cook approx 45 mins, stirring only occaisionally. When 5 mins left, add 1.5 cups diced tomatoes- a can actually works in this instance, too. Salt, pepper, and serve. I make this with red and green cabbage usually. Its soupy but good. You could easily eliminate the caraway and substitute another herb. I was very skeptical of this recipe because of the long cooking time, but dd ate it up when she was tiny.

I got some "poc choi" -- a variant of bok choy, methinks -- in a recent CSA box and posted a Q about that here, so you could search for that and check out the responses I got.

What I've been doing with my asian greens is making eggrolls and potstickers. They're yummy and use lots of the cabbagey type greens.

HTH!

I like it plain steamed, sometimes I put tahini on top.
