Ingredients
Bok choy
Bok Choy is a variety of Chinese “non-headed” cabbage. Which means “white vegetable” in Chinese. However, not all bok choy has a white stem, for instance, it can be green, yellow and purple. Importantly, no matter what the stem color it is chock-full ofย nutrients.ย We are talking over 21 nutrients, rich in beta-carotene, antioxidants, anti-inflammatories, vitamins A, K, C, magnesium, and zinc, damn! That isn’t everything. For that reason, researchers say thisย cruciferous vegetable you too will want to eat it for every meal.
Bok Choy Tips:
- Bok Choy; look for firm stems, bright green leaves, free of brown or yellow spots
- Store; clean and store in a cool environment, crisper
- Lasting time; stored properly should last 5-7 days
This is to say, bok choy is a great vegetable not only forย salads, try it in your favoriteย stir fry, grilled on the barbecue, or lightly sautรฉed. The less you cook it the more nutritious it will be. All that being said; don’t miss out on using bok choy in all types of dishes, limitless options.
Additional fresh ingredients:
Above all, the ingredients add freshness to this salad. Furthermore, the addition of the green onions and radishes adds just the right hint of flavors. Depending on your radishes, they can addย a bit of a bite which is all good. Before serving topย with the toasted almonds, yum!
To sum up this recipe, easy. In a hurry to add a side for dinner? This is by far the simplest recipe to date. Having green pea fritters, artichoke panini sandwich, southern jackfruit barbecue sandwich, or a simple pasta dinner, in short, pairs seamlessly with anything.
In short, have fun in the kitchen, don’t take yourself too seriously. Subscribe, share, and let me know how “YOU” made it your own. Share your positive comments and suggestions.ย Love from VGFL.
