My first lesson in cooking Chinese veggies. Looked way too easy. TY!
I always thought those would super difficult to prepare. I am shocked how easy they are to put together! I would love a video of a meal that includes the veggie as well, if you are so inclined.
I bet your home smelled delicious when you were cooking those veggies! The only one I'm familiar with is the baby bok choy and I hardly ever buy it because it is so expensive here. Anything labelled 'baby' automatically comes with increased price, it seems. As always, 'The Taste' did not disappoint. Love that part of your videos, thank you for keeping them. Have a wonderful week!
I don’t think we can get baby bok Choi here, or the other greens you used, they look delicious 😋 Ohhhhh and I doubt your veg was boiled to death when you were kids but, the reason we kids hated them was because they were! We oldies, here (U.K.) anyway , have a joke about Brussels sprouts, that they’re put on to cook in October, so that they’re ready for Christmas! 🤣😂
Wow super yum! I love the short cook time and the crunch. Reminds me that I definitely overcook my veg. This video made my mouth water… but then again they all do 😋
I love baby Bok Choy. The Gai Lan reminds me of broccolini.
one of my favourites of yours so far. thanks so much. sugar for gai lan is a new trick – that will make it easier to eat!
Great video. And thank you for sharing your grandma’s story.
Yes! We love our green leafy veg… ate them with every meal growing up and my kids ate them as well. They still love these greens to this day. Have you ever eaten pea tips? These are the actual tips from the pea pod vines. I never had these growing up but in the last 15 years, we started eating this dish (pea tips sauteed in a garlic sauce) very time we were out for a Chinese meal.. There's a way to look for the tenderest tips but I'm not that patient to figure it out.. Have you made these before?
Thank you!
This was wonderful. I remember that while our house is being fixed that we lived in a predominately Chinese area for about six months. The vegetables were fascinating, the variety of bok choy plus the vegetables you mentioned. And there was another green vegetable called chrysanthemum greens. I can’t wait to your simple method!
I love bok choy, but then I love most cooked greens.
Thank you for this video, Flo & Dude, I didn’t know how to cook these so haven’t bought them but now I will. Thanks again
Love the team work. Always enjoy seeing you both and hearing Flo’s laughter. It’s so contagious.
My favorite veggie, baby bok choy! 🙂
Those itty bitty bok choys are adorable 🙂 I don't have them often as I have to make a trip to another neighborhood to shop at the Asian market. I go a couple times a year to buy dark soy sauce and Japanese mayonnaise and up getting produce while i'm there.
Wow! Talk about perfectly cooked veggies! I enjoyed the video, but what really impressed me was that "crunch". I often wondered what sort of veg I could cook when serving Chinese dishes and you've solved my problem. I especially liked the baby bok choy – have never seen that here so, will have to check! 👍😊
My grandfather too also grew an assortment of Asian vegetables in his backyard. He would harvest them and take the bus to Chinatown in Seattle and sell them to a small mom and pop grocery store. One of my favorite memories as a kid was going to Chinatown with my parents to go pick him up and get dim sum.
I prefer Chinese vegetables over western vegetables
Hi Flo. You mention that you first soak veggies in salt water then rinse before cooking. How long do you soak them? Is it a quick soak (1-2 mins) or a long one (15-30 mins)? And is it a shake of salt or a tsp or tbsp amount in a bowl of water?
