Bok Choy is a superfood. It is also known as Chinese white cabbage.
It is usually used for stir-fry and soups. Bok Choy doesn’t require too much time to cook and hence serves as a great option for quick dishes when there is a time crunch.
A meal with Bok Choy in it, can be made in the least possible time.
The only precaution you need to take is to rinse it well under water, before you use it for cooking. It is recommended you cut off the ends and wash each stalk + leaf individually.
The dirt usually collects at the bottom in the crevices of the stalks, so cutting the ends off, helps make them more accessible to clean.
