Choy Sum, which translates to "heart of the vegetable," is a popular leafy green in Chinese cuisine. It is recognized by its tender green leaves, crisp stems, and the presence of small, yellow flowers, all of which are edible. It has a mild, sweet, and slightly mustardy flavor, less bitter than its cousin Gai Lan. It is perfect for a quick stir-fry with garlic or for blanching and serving with a light soy sauce dressing. We supply fresh bunches with budding flowers, a sign of peak quality.
