There are several varieties of Bok choy, including standard Bok choy, which has broader stalks and leaves, and baby Bok choy, which is smaller and more tender. Bok choy is a notable example of an ethnic vegetable introduced to USA by Asian immigrants who brought their culinary traditions with them."
