Question:

What Part of Bok Choy Do I Use In Soup?

I'm making wonton soup, and the recipe calls for 1 1/2 cups of sliced bok choy. I've never used this ingredient before . . . do I use the leafy green ends, the firmer white bottoms, or all of it?

Thanks!


Answers:
I use the whole thing when I make wonton soup. Slice the white bits thinner than the tops, and add them a minute or 2 before the tops cause the tops cook faster. Don't overcook it either. It's best when the white bits are still just a little bit crunchy.

use mostly the leafy greens. cut off the bottom part. You can use the stalk part chopped small.

i have only used the green leaves chopped lightly. save the bottom to make a veggie stock. add onion ,celery and carrots then discard after use. store in freezer to use as base for next batch of favorite soup.

I leave the tops coarse chop and the white stems I cut thin. It adds a nice crunch in the soap.

u can use it all depending on which parts u like to eat. just cut off the very bottom of the stalk
