Choisam

Spicy paksoi look-alike

Choisam - Product photo

The leafy vegetable choisam is often mistaken for another member of the Chinese cabbage family, paksoi. This is hardly surprising, as the stems and leaves have quite a few similarities. It is a commonly used ingredient in Chinese cuisine.

The taste is a little more intense than that of paksoi and the texture is also different. Choisam is a little more fibrous, but also crunchy and juicy.

Recipes & preparation tips

With its intense flavour, choisam feels right at home in many wok dishes in Chinese cuisine. Stir-frying is a good option, but it is also a tasty side dish when boiled. By the way, feel free to try chamsoi raw. Its crispy and juicy leaves add a crunchy bite to a salad. A quick rinse is sufficient.
