Misc.
Hi There Nicki,

So very happy to see a fellow S.African aboard I,ve been here for about 2 years now and have made many friends it really is a great place to *Meet*.everyone is so helpful and friendly.Sorry I have,t got back to you about the bok Choy question I have,t been about much this last week ,we,re building at home and the kids have just gone back after mid term break!!!!!Thank goodness.What part of S.A are you from I,m just out side Joburg in the North.Would love to chat more with you.If you like ask Betsy to send you my email addy.
Back to Bok Choy!

InFo:

bok choy = Chinese chard = Chinese white cabbage = Chinese cabbage = Chinese mustard cabbage = pak choy = pak choi = baak choi = white mustard cabbage = yow choy = white celery mustard = taisai Pronunciation: BAHK-choy Notes: Small heads of bok choy are called baby bok choy (left). Of the baby bok choys, bok choy sum = Canton bok choy has small yellow flowers (sum is the Chinese word for flower), while Shanghai bok choy is a uniform light green, doesn't have flowers, and isn't as sweet. Substitutes: napa cabbage (for stir-frying only; don't boil) OR Swiss chard OR celery (especially in stir-fry dishes) OR collard greens OR beet greens A head of bok choy is about the size of a head of celery. The stalks are thick and white extending about half the length of the head; the leaves dark green and somewhat rounded in shape. Baby bok choy is a more uniform green colour.

We can get them in Good green grocers here in S.A but I find the best and freshest is in good old Woolworths!!!!!they also sell alot of Asain type veggies as well brilliant for stir frys.

Hope to hear from you soon
Bye
Julie
