About Bok Choy
Small, tender green bok choy with very low calories and a soft texture.
Health Benefits of Bok Choy
A low-calorie tender leafy green
Baby bok choy is only 13 kcal and 1.6g carbs per 100g, yet nutrient-dense, rich in vitamin A and vitamin C with a notable calcium level for a vegetable. At ~95% water it's a textbook 'eat lots without gaining' green.
Garlic and oyster sauce are its best friends
Garlic baby bok choy is the quickest home dish: sizzle garlic, add bok choy over high heat, toss ~1 minute until just cooked. Oyster-sauce bok choy is a restaurant staple: blanch then coat with a garlic-oyster sauce. It also works in soups, added at the end and cooked 10 seconds to stay green.
