Bok choy, is a member of the Brassica family, informally known as cruciferous vegetables, cabbages or mustard plants. It’s origins can be traced all the way back to China over 5,000 years ago. The flavor is mild, with a slight hint of mustard and cabbage.
For this recipe I used 2 regular sized bok choy, they have white stems and long dark green leaves.

You can also add chile flakes right before the stock to give the bok choy a little kick.
