Baby Bok Choy with Garlic image

Baby bok choy have a milder taste than the full-grown deal and are also more tender. I just cook them in some chicken broth and garlic, and serve them with rice and fish. My family enjoys the taste of garlic, so we use quite a bit. Feel free to adjust accordingly.

Categories     Soup/Stew     Chicken     Ginger     Leafy Green     Pork     Dinner     Pork Rib     Winter     Simmer     Gourmet     Sugar Conscious     Dairy Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free

Yield Makes 6 main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

For soup
2 lb country-style (meaty) pork ribs
2 lb chicken thighs, legs, and wings
4 scallions, coarsely chopped
1 (2-inch) piece peeled fresh ginger, chopped
12 cups water
1 1/2 lb bok choy, leaves halved lengthwise, then stalks and leaves thinly sliced crosswise
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
For wontons
1/2 lb ground pork (not lean)
1 large egg yolk
2 scallions, finely chopped
1 (1 1/2-inch) piece peeled fresh ginger, finely chopped
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon rice vinegar (not seasoned)
1/2 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
About 30 wonton wrappers, thawed if frozen

Steps:

  • Make broth:
  • Simmer pork ribs, chicken, scallions, ginger, and water in a 6- to 8-quart tall narrow stockpot, uncovered, until meat is very tender and falling apart, 4 1/2 to 5 hours. Pour broth through a sieve into a large bowl and discard solids. Cool broth, uncovered, then chill, covered, at least 1 1/2 hours.
  • Make wontons:
  • Stir together pork, yolk, scallions, ginger, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, salt, and white pepper in a bowl in 1 direction with your hand until just combined (do not overwork, or filling will be tough).
  • Put 1 wonton wrapper on a work surface (keep remaining wrappers covered with plastic wrap). Spoon a rounded teaspoon of filling in center of square, then brush water around edges. Lift 2 opposite corners together to form a triangle and enclose filling, pressing edges firmly around mound of filling to eliminate air pockets and seal. Moisten opposite corners of long side. Curl moistened corners toward each other, overlapping one on top of the other, and carefully press corners together to seal. Make more wontons in same manner.
  • Finish soup:
  • Skim any fat from broth, then bring to a simmer in a 5- to 6-quart pot. Stir in bok choy, salt, and white pepper and simmer, uncovered, until bok choy is crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Add wontons and simmer, uncovered, gently stirring, until filling is just cooked through, about 3 minutes (cut 1 open to check).

Tips:

  • When choosing bok choy, look for firm, dark green leaves and crisp white stalks.
  • To prepare bok choy, remove any wilted or damaged leaves and cut off the root end.
  • Rinse the bok choy thoroughly under cold water.
  • Bok choy can be cooked in a variety of ways, including stir-frying, steaming, and braising.
  • To stir-fry bok choy, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of oil and the bok choy. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the bok choy is tender and slightly browned.
  • To steam bok choy, place a steamer basket in a large pot filled with water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Place the bok choy in the steamer basket and cover the pot. Steam for 3-4 minutes, or until the bok choy is tender.
  • To braise bok choy, heat a large pot over medium heat. Add a tablespoon of oil and the bok choy. Brown the bok choy on all sides, then add a cup of broth and a tablespoon of soy sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the bok choy is tender.

Conclusion:

Bok choy is a versatile and delicious vegetable that can be enjoyed in a variety of dishes. Whether you stir-fry it, steam it, or braise it, bok choy is sure to add flavor and nutrition to your next meal.
