Know the Dish

Why yu choy works

Yu choy is a Chinese leafy green with tender stalks and small yellow flowers. It has a slight peppery, mustard-green bite and natural sweetness - less bitter than broccoli rabe and more delicate than mustard greens.

The whole plant is edible: stalk, leaf, and flower bud. It stays tender when wok-fried and takes on a glossy, savory finish.

Gluten-sensitive: cannot be made gluten free because the stir fry sauce contains soy sauce.
Vegan: the base dish is vegan; egg is only added on request.
How it eats: glossy, savory greens with garlic, gentle peppery bite, and a sweet soy finish.
