Bok Choy Is AMAZING & Why You Should Eat It (with recipe)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 чер 2024
- Bok Choy is an incredibly healthy but often under utilized vegetable. Being high in calcium and low in oxalates makes it one of the best sources of calcium and other minerals. Just two cups of cooked Bok Choy contain almost half your RDI of iron and more protein per calorie than black beans! It also contains one of the most powerful anti-oxidants found in food called Sulforaphane that helps to fight cancer, prevent memory loss and protect our DNA.

SAUTEED BOK CHOY WITH TOFU
4 cups bok choy, chopped
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 block tofu, cut into chunks. (You can sub cooked/canned beans or another protein source)
Sauce
1 tbsp chopped ginger
1 tbsp peanut butter
1 tbsp ACV
1 pitted date
3 tsp tamari
1 garlic clove
1 tbsp flax
2-3 Tbsp water. Use more if needed.
I like the sauce thicker, but you may like it thinner. Have fun experimenting but remember, if you can always add more water, but not take it away!
Saute chopped onions and tofu chunks on medium heat. Add water to prevent sticking. Sauté for 3-5 minutes until onions cook through and become soft. In a blender or magic bullet, blend all sauce ingredients together until smooth. Add sauce and bok choy to onions and tofu and sauté until bok choy is soft. Serve hot and enjoy!

When is Derek going to get recognition as the best UA-camr??💪🏽💪🏽
Haha there's so many good channels! Smarter Everyday? Colin Furze? Gas Station Encounters? There's lots but you are vey nice to me and my ego! :D
@@Simnettnutrition I have to agree with Ed P, I enjoy your channel and have learned so much from you. Thanks!
Exactly!
Simnett Nutrition , a tip when cooking with tofu when you use it in stir fried!! You should lightly fried it so it will keep it shape when you fried it with vegetables.If you like to add the crispy into your dish , you should fried until it became golden brown and add it last when you finished cooking the rest of your ingredients.
Immediately after he renounces veganism. 😉👍
You're one of the few legit nutritionist vegan you tubers! Your channel is so beyond informative!
Not a dietitian or nutritionist.
Tell him to talk about his steroid use . that's very vegan last time i checked lol
@@kalprao You must be some hard gainer if you think you need roids to get to Derek's size. Feels bad man.
@@tummyrubber2k939 for a Vegan bodybuilder that's active that's pretty big lol . Compare to what he used to look like, it's obvious he is taking something
@@kalprao Being vegan has nothing to do with how big you can get. Literally nothing.
you deserve so much more recognition than you do now. you’re such a great youtuber.
I agree 🙏
What I love the most about being vegan is how your body starts to crave on good food, I m Just looking at stir fried vegetables, salivating
Basile Châtelain true! I get hankerings for broccoli. 🙈
Totally - I never thought it would happen but I'm now excited by healthy food :D
I wish that happened with me... 😥
You're right. People out there, keep eating vegan (mainly healthy food) and after a while you'll crave for veggies. I never thought that my I could crave for carrot with hummus, but I now do.
😒🙄
Bol choy with shittake mushrooms is amazing
Dude, I honestly had no idea bok choy was such a powerhouse veggie!!! Definitely picking some up on the next grocery haul. Great job on this vid man!! 👊🏼🌱
Thanks Erik! It is such amazing stuff. I didn't realize it either.
It's great mixed into an oil-free stir fry. It is a slightly bitter green, so it pairs really well with soy sauce or teriyaki sauce. Chop the white part into cubes and add it to the pan, then shred the green part and add it towards the last two minutes of cooking. Happy cooking!
Bok choy side dishes have always been my fave when going out to eat at places that do serve it. I decided to start buying and cooking it at home, now I have the bonus knowledge of knowing it's actually a great source of vitamins that I need in my diet!
*Actual photo of my hand 😂😂😂 had me dying!!!
Awesome! Cruciferous veggies also are a good protector for women as they fight estrogen dominance conditions, and help protect against ovarian and breast cancer :)
Awesome Derek, thank you for doing this one, another amazing veggie I can now no longer be afraid of and add to my arsenal!
I have bok choy growing in the garden and love, love, love adding it to my morning smoothie!
I was bored as shit....then i got this notification now im good
Notification squad!
Thank You for All your research, love and time.. Wow.. 👏👏🏾👏🏿💋
Derek you have inspired me to buy some bok choy. I know I've had it before. That recipe looks amazing.
Omg, just made the sauce and IT IS DELICOUS!! Thank you!
I love how you integrate nutrition information with practical ways to use the food. So Awesome!! Thank you!
We need more people like you in America to encourage people to eat more vegetables. I just purchased some bok choy from the supermarket I needed some more information about it's nutrition. Thanks to this video buk choy has made it to the top of my shopping list. Very informative.
Loving these vids on the specifics of different plant foods!!! Well done....as usual! Thanks for the great content!!! Oh..... also love the shirt!
I've had some bok choy in my fridge for a while and finally used it tonight. I was inspired by your recipe, but made some changes based on what I had available. Tofu, bok choy, onions, carrots, red cabbage and broccoli with a teriyaki/peanut sauce. With 3 awesome brassicas, I'm calling it my crucifer-RICH stir fry. Thanks for the inspiration and fun facts!
I've always wanted to try this vegetable. Thanks.
Thank you for showing us how to make a from scratch ginger dressing. It is hard to find without gluten in it but now I can make it myself from scratch! You are awesome!
We planted bok choy for the first time in our winter garden. It is ready to eat and I am excited to try some new recipes using Bok Choy. Thanks for all the great information! 🙂
Thanks for the chart. Nice to have as someone who's suffered from oxalate stones.
Will definitely be trying this. Thank you!!👍🏻
I really appreciate these informational videos….I grow box Chou in my garden and i eat so much of it in the growing season…ty for the info! 🥬😀
Your videos always make me so happy. Thanks Derek
Great video! I just recently started adding bok choy to my cuisine and I love how versatile it can be for soups, stir fry’s, noodles...so yummy 😋
I made this dish with the sauce for me and my husband for dinner today. Oh my gosh, I can’t tell you how much we loved it! The only tweaks I did are as follows: adding mushrooms and garlic to the stir fry and leaving the garlic out of the sauce. We prefer garlic cooked, so I did it that way. Anyway, the meal was so amazing. It will now be one of our go-to favorites. Thanks for all your cool recipes and tips for those of us working on eating whole foods and lots of plants. You and Crystal are great!
1:13 haha that same picture was in my gr.11 bio textbook! boy does that bring back some good memories :) and you even remind me of my bio teacher too. you guys are seriously the best and smartest people on the planet ♡
I’m obsessed with this series ❤️ excited to try this sauce
He has such great ideas! Gotta 🤗 his videos
Learning so much from this series. You are a gem!
Your videos rock.. filled with great health & nutrition information, and positive energy. 🙏
I started buying bok choy last year. Thanks for educating me as to the health benefits of this amazing vegetable.
Excellent. Saves us a bunch of time narrowing it down!
Absolutely love this food series!! ❤️❤️
Yummy!!! Making this for sure!
The sauce is amazing! thanks love it!
Thank u so much Derek... The sauce is amazzzzing... Very informative video.. Like always
I would never know what to cook with this one without your video. Thank you
Love your videos! 😍 So informative and nicely edited! 🙌🏻
Another great video Derek!!! 💚
Awesome videos Derek , the way you able to explain and let people no the nutrition of each product you need a your own show on cable. Derek, Healthy cooking show. Thank you for all you do.
Today looks so amazing!! I'm definately getting some Bokchoy!
Great video! I eat a lot of it but had no idea it was such a super veg! Thanks so much!!!
Made it, loved it!
Recently discovered bok choy and I love it! Thanks for the informative video!
I am finding your channel soo educational and relatable. Keep on keeping it real please. I'm learning alot and try to remember to 'like' them all.
I have no idea what to do with bok choy so I'm glad I watched this! That sauce looked amazing!
Such a round about way I came to your channel from your video on VivoLife but so glad. This series has been so informative and fun to watch, thank you so much for keeping them going! And love the shirt ❤️
Great info as always. Thanks!
Loving the series!
Thanks again I am learning so much new info from your channel Derek. Additionally the oil free sauces you make are fantastic. I now love to eat greens because of the tasty sauce,
YOUR THE MAN. I AM A PLANT-BASED MEDICAL NUTRITIONIST (FUNCTIONAL AND INTEGRATIVE REGISTERED DIETITIAN) AND I WANTED TO SAY YOUR VIDEO IS ON POINT! EXCELLENT MY FRIEND.
THANK YOU! I use this in my smoothie now instead of spinach and I LOVE it!! Super mild
I need to try this cause I don't like cooked greens. Do you use just the leaves in the smoothie or the stalks too?
Thank you for another educational video! I am Chinese and a very common Cantonese dish is to have it sauteed in a little oil and garlic and then topped with a few pinches of salt. Also works well in soups like to you said with some tofu - it's the bomb!
My doggy, keep up the good work. This is a superb video series. You have made a fan for life, I will never forget what you have done for me today.
I love that thing! I didn't know what was called or what was good for. I just buy it because it's green and love it. Is awesome to know you are putting great stuff to your belly. Thanks Derek👍
Great video man, very informative! I’m going to start using more bok choy in my recipes.
Awesome video. Need to add to my shopping list. I’m a vitamix fan but just ordered a smaller blender. Thanks for everything.
This was awesome!
So easy to grow, too!
I bought a packet of mixed seeds called "asian greens" & it was by far the best and easiest crop I've grown, alongside English spinach.
Kale is also easy to grow but it attracts a LOT of bugs; bok choy/pak choy and other asian greens DON'T bring bugs in to anywhere near the same degree!
They also go great in a smoothie raw ❤ thanks Derek!
Your research skills are AWESOME!
I love this video great explanation of bok choy and its health benefits
Great video man. My favorite so far.
awesome video - thank you!!!
Always love your videos!
I love everything about this video and bok choy! Thank you for all the great info 🙂🙂🙂
Thank you! Love your videos!
wow, i already love bok choy, especially in soups, im gonna be eating a lot more of it!
I watched an entire Fage yogurt advert. for this video! That shows my dedication to you, my good sir! Haha. Keep up the great work, you’re simply awesome! Thank you for all you do; you’re making a tremendous difference by sharing all this Vegan truth with us! 😊🌱
I must have been channeling you because I randomly bought bok choy at the grocery store Friday! I am totally making this tonight with some wild yam noodles.
Thanks for another great video 👍🏻
I love how Mic the Vegan you get but with way more amicable charm (No offense Mic). This is a great video and a great series! It is so informative and helps me keep all these amazing, healthy foods consistently in my diet. I re-watch them to absorb info that I may have missed and plan recipes inspired by yours. Thank you!
Awesome lessons dear sir, thank you 💪💪💪
Awesome information and recipe. Thank you for sharing. 😎🇨🇦💪
Great meal, I’m excited to try it!
Thanks for the nutritional profile! I have loads ready in the greenhouse.
So much useful info in one video, thanks!
* For some reason the oxalates link wouldn't load. Maybe it's broken?
Fantastic video, recently bought it
I loved it.. And has always brought it on a weekly basis for my stirfry vegetables , soups ,and of course Ramyeon..☺.. Yes.. Its super delicious veg.. I loved the white stems when its steamed
Wow... I watched this 3 years ago! But... went to the store for bok choy so had to search for a Simnett Nutrition bok choy recipe and here it is! Thanks Derek.
Found your channel, and love this first video I watched. Helps that you're easy on the eyes too. Nice content!
Love this channel!!
Bok Choy is so easy to grow. It comes to maturity super fast in my fall South Carolina garden. Can withstand frosts. Your recipe was delicious.
Another awesome video. 🙏🏼🙌🏼👊🏼 We grow tons of it in the fall and winter here in Florida Every season we save seeds from our best plants and grow them again the following year. It is incredibly versatile as you pointed out in the video. 🙏🏼🙏🏼💪🏼🌱🌿
I love to put pok choi in a simple salad instead of lettuce, gives the salad more crisp and more distinctive taste. All the vitamin C saved! 🙂 Thanks for the video, great content as always.
Thank you I learn new food to try!
I love this series!! I also love Bok Choy and I use it all the time! I don’t know if any one else would be interested, but would you consider doing a video on molasses?? I feel like I’m the only one who eats it, and I know the taste can be polarizing for folks, but the iron and calcium content is crazy high! I’d love to learn more about it. Thanks for all you do! Your channel is so good!
Derek, thanks for this series. Just for future reference, 3 teaspoons equals 1 Tablespoon.
Thank you! haha.
Haha, I came to the comments to see if anyone else picked this up too. I swear I am not anal... Okay, maybe just a little 😬
Glad someone else told him.
Amazing video once again
Thank you for this video! I really enjoyed it! I got some bok choy and had no idea what to do with it. All I know is to put them in soup. I'd like to try it with different vegetables. I'm excited to cook them up!
Just made this recipe and it is so delicious. I made it with white bean instead of tofu.
Thanks for showing us how to cook book choy. Never made it before because I didn’t know how
Just bought Bok Choy and wasn't sure how to cook it and your video popped up. I heard it was good, so thanks for the nutritional info. Going to make it today.
I have just tried bok choy for the first time I love it ❤
Thank you for this recipe. I have made the dressing you suggested and slightly adapted it using coconut aminos, little grated garlic and ginger root then used it as a condiment for steamed zucchini.
I have just subscribed to your channel what I like about how you do things is you blend recipes with food chemistry and food history and nutrition so you learn several things into one. 👌
Beautiful recipe & very informative
Yet another fabulous video. Thanks for this. We shop at a Chinese supermarket and can get huge bags for very little. Love the sauce recipe, so simple, can't wait to try it.
Thanks again buddy, all the best.
Thanks Derek! Bok Choy here is quite cheap. More ideas to include in my meals!
I’ve always been a little intimidated by BokChoy and I have no idea why. After watching this I went out and bought some. It’s on the menu for my wife and I’s next dinner. Thanks for the recipe Derek! Your sauces are always on point and such an inspiration to create in the kitchen. I love your style brother, never stop making content for us 😉🌱
Literally best UA-camr!
Thanks so much! I needed to find something I liked that I could reduce my oxalates and increase my calcium.
Such a great video, thank you for the amazing work! :))
