This Week’s Box Featuring Bok Choy from Ho Farms – Week of January 31

January 31, 2022 by Amy Buglione

Featured Item: Bok Choy from Ho Farms

Bok-choy

Bok Choy is a type of Chinese cabbage. Chinensis varieties do not form heads; instead, they have smooth, dark green leaf blades forming a cluster reminiscent of mustard or celery.  Bok Choy contains tons of Vitamin A and a strong amount of Vitamin C.  Actually, chinese cabbage was ranked second for nutrient density out of 41 “powerhouse” fruits and vegetables in a peer-reviewed US Center for Disease Control study.

Preparation

First, trim off the bottom of the stalk and discard. Wash the bok choy under cold water.  Dirt tends to collect toward the base of the stems so make sure you run water through that area.

Separate the leaves from the stems with a sharp knife, making two piles. Cut the stems into 1/2 inch pieces.  Since the leaves cook more quickly than the stems, you’ll want to stir-fry them first.  Add to any stir-fry – the stems will take about six minutes to cook and the leaves about three.

This week, we have spigarello from Ho Farms!

Spigarello is a primitive heirloom varietal of the broccoli family and is native to Southern Italy. Spigarello is a variety of leaf broccoli, is related to broccoli rabe, and looks like a cross between kale and broccoli. The taste is similar to broccoli, with the leaves having a mild taste and the texture is succulent and crunchy.

How to Prepare Spigarello:

It is recommended to trim the stems and the leaves can be enjoyed as a salad green, wilting green or soup green.
