Bok Choy Stir-fried with Ginger
In email, someone asked me how to cook baby bok choy. I haven't tried making that but I did have this post drafted from a few years ago. Figured I might as well post it even though I think I should have minced up a few cloves of garlic and sauteed the garlic in with the ginger. But at least I like the photos so I'll go ahead and post even though I haven't had a chance to try cooking this recipe up again.
In other news, I've started trying to identify the recipes I've posted that are vegan and tag them. I would also look for and tag the gluten-free recipes but I don't really know much about the tricky bits yet. For example, a few years ago, I brought a Green Beans and Garlic dish to a potluck for a friend who ate gluten-free, and was chagrined to learn that soy sauce isn't gluten-free. What other tricky ingredients would I want to keep an eye out for?
