🧊 Storage Tips

Keep your pak choi fresher for longer with these simple tips:

Can you freeze it? Yes! If you’ve got more than you can use, blanch the leaves and stems for 30 seconds in boiling water, then plunge into ice water, drain well, and freeze in portions. It’s perfect for soups, stews, and broths straight from the freezer.

In the fridge: Pak choi likes it cool and slightly humid. Wrap it in a damp tea towel or pop it into a sealed container or produce bag to keep it crisp. Store it in the vegetable drawer if you can.

How long does it last? Fresh, healthy pak choi from our farm will usually keep well for 4–6 days in the fridge. Use the leaves sooner if they’re very tender, and save the stalks for stir-fries later in the week.

🌿 Fun Facts & FAQs

Where does pak choi come from?

Pak choi is a type of Chinese cabbage that’s been grown for thousands of years across Asia — particularly in China, Japan, and Korea. It’s now loved all over the world for its fast growth, crunchy texture, and gentle flavour.

Is pak choi the same as bok choy?

Yes! “Pak choi” and “bok choy” are just different names for the same plant — pak choi is the British spelling, bok choy is more common in the US. Both mean “white vegetable” in Cantonese.

Why do we love growing it on our regenerative farm?

Pak choi can be a bit tricky to grow — it’s sensitive to weather and pests — but when it thrives, it really thrives. It grows fast, doesn’t need much space, and when grown in rich, living soil, it becomes a vibrant, nutrient-dense superstar. It’s a joy to see its glossy green leaves pop up from the beds, and an even bigger joy to share it with you 💚
