How to Grow

Sow seeds directly into well-drained, fertile soil or seed-raising mix in a sunny to partly shaded position. Plant 0.5–1cm deep, spacing 15–20cm apart for full-sized plants, or sow more densely for baby bok choy. Water regularly to keep soil consistently moist. Shanghai bok choy grows best in cooler conditions — ideal for Australian autumn, winter, and spring gardens (March–October). In tropical regions, grow during the cooler dry season. Harvest whole plants when mature, or pick outer leaves for a cut-and-come-again approach. Baby bok choy can be harvested at 15–20cm for a tender, delicate result.

In the Kitchen

Shanghai bok choy is incredibly versatile — stir-fry with garlic and oyster sauce for a classic, simple side dish that pairs with everything. Blanch whole and serve with oyster sauce and sesame oil for an elegant, clean presentation. Add to Thai clear soup (gaeng jued), ramen, pho, or congee for extra greens and body. Use in Chinese-style braised dishes with soy sauce and ginger. Steam alongside dim sum or dumplings for a fresh, healthy accompaniment. Also wonderful in Japanese hot pot (nabe) or Korean doenjang jjigae.
