Directions

Bok Choy Preparation

1. Inspect your bok choy and discard any damaged or yellow leaves.
2. Cut each piece in half down the middle. (If you can’t find baby bok choy tips you can use regular size bok choy; just cut it into quarters rather than halves.) Place in a medium-size bowl.
3. Dissolve 1 1/2 tablespoons of sea salt in 1 cup of water. Sprinkle over bok choy then press down to completely submerge bok choy.
4. Let stand for 10 minutes. Then mix bok choy thoroughly frΩ and let stand for another 10 minutes. (You do not have to place a weight on top but you can if you want.)
5. Rinse bok choy 2 to 3 times. Drain. Let stand in now empty rinsed bowl.

Everything else:

1. Chop washed scallion into 1/2-inch pieces.
2. In a small bowl, combine Mama O’s Premium Vegan Kimchi Paste, vinegar, scallion, and sugar.

3. Pour this mixture over the bok choy, then rub it over the bok choy with your hands to get an even coating.
4. Add additional vinegar, sugar, and salt to your taste.
5. Serve immediately or after chilling.
