BABY BOK CHOY SALAD
This crunchy salad is from my friend, Louie. The dressing keeps very well in the cupboard, and the quantities for it shown here are enough for three or four batches of salad. The cooking time includes toasting the almonds and pine nuts. Jen -- a reviewer -- is right. This salad is better if it is dressed a while before it is served. But wait to add the crispy noodles just before serving. Leftovers of this get a bit soggy overnight, but are still quite nice the next day.

Steps:
- Combine all dressing ingredients in a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Shake well. Set aside until needed.
- Toast slivered almonds in a small pan. After about 1 minute, add the pine nuts and continue to toast both ingredients. Stir constantly so these don't burn. When nice browned, remove from pan and set aside to cool.
- Chop bok choy in 1-inch pieces. Wash well to remove grit. Spin dry, or roll in a tea towel to dry.
- Trim green onions and chop (on the diagonal) into 1-inch pieces (use both white and green bits).
- Toss together bok choy, sliced onions, toasted nuts and several very generous sloshes of dressing. Try to dress this at least an hour before it will be served.
- Sprinkle crisp chow mein noodles on top, stir well and serve.

Steps:
- Blanch bok choy in a 4- to 6-quart pot of boiling salted water until just wilted but still bright green, about 30 seconds. Drain in a colander, then rinse under cold water to stop cooking and drain well.
- Whisk together vinegar, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, pepper, and five-spice powder in a small bowl, then add oils in a slow stream, whisking until combined. Stir in sesame seeds.
- Toss together chicken, cucumber, cilantro, and 1/3 cup dressing in a bowl.
- Divide bok choy among 4 serving bowls and spoon chicken salad on top. Drizzle with some of remaining dressing and sprinkle with cashews. Transfer remaining dressing to an airtight container and chill for another use.
BABY OCTOPUS AND SQUID WITH BABY BOK CHOY - SALAD
Baby bok choy comes in a variety of sizes, so the amount you use will really depend on what is available. Serving size will depend on whether you make this as a side or main dish. Red pepper sauce: go towards flavorful rather than simply merely HOT. Rice vinegar is NOT sushi vinegar, the latter has sugar. As with most of my recipes, ingredient quantities are approximate. I can see adding drained capers and/or toasted pine nuts at the end in a future rendition of this... Prep time includes marinating time.

Steps:
- boil and then simmer the octopus and the de-stemmed shitakes in the mixture of water and wine for 15-20 minutes, or until the octopus is tender.
- Add the squid, and do a high simmer for no more than one minute. Do NOT overcook! Gets tough and nasty.
- Drain into colander and run cold water over the octopods and shrooms in the colander to stop the cooking process.
- Cut the octopus and the squid into smaller bite size pieces. Leave the shitake mushroom caps whole unless they are truly enormous.
- Place drained items into a bowl, then add everything else except bok choy and shallot.
- Marinate at least 4 hours, or overnight.
- Immediately before serving, layer out your leaves of bok choy, along with the shallot. Drain the seafood marinate of excess liquid, then ladle this atop the bok choy/shallot layer.
- Alternatively, chop the bok choy and shallot into smaller pieces, and put the drained seafood mixture in the same serving dish, and toss.

ALMOND AND BABY BOK CHOY ASIAN SALAD
This crispy salad uses authentic Asian ingredients and the sauce is delicious. If you can find mirin in an Asian grocery store, it makes it much more authentic and not too sweet.
