Preparation Instructions
Trim blemished ends off the bok choy. Slice in half lengthwise. Place side by side in a single layer in a storage container. Cover, label, date and refrigerate until needed.

To prepare à la carte:
1. Place 8 oz. of bok choy in a nonreactive saucepan just large enough to hold four halves. Pour 8 oz. of warmed Asian chicken stock over the top of the bok choy. Cover. Bring to a boil.Remove the cover. Sprinkle 1 oz. of shiitake mushrooms over the top of the bok choy. Replace the cover. Simmer for 5 minutes or until just cooked through.

2. Place the bok choy side by side in a heated serving bowl. Angle them in so the tops are touching. Keep the mushrooms together. Spoon them on top of the center of the bok choy. Pour the stock over the top of the bok choy.

3. Place 1 Tbsp. of toasted coconut on top of the mushrooms. Sprinkle ¼ tsp. of white and black sesame seeds over the top of the bok choy and stock.
