Also known as Bok Choy or Pok Choi, this delicate cabbage variety from China is traditionally used in stir-fries, but it’s blending so well in Irish cuisine and rapidly becoming one of the most often used leafy greens in our households.
Irish Pak Choi is available from March to December.
Tasting notes:
The flavour profile is somewhere between mild cabbage and spinach. The younger the leaves, the sweeter the taste!
