Normally great
I buy this often and it's normally great but the last time I ordered it was full of bugs hmmm
choi sum
long ones, it's ok good
Super fresh
I love both stalks and leaves in a stir fry
very misleading photo
The picture shows the inner core of a green vegetable with the outer leaves removed. What I got was a bag of stringy tasteless outer leaves, missing the crunch and sweetness of the core, the reason this vegetable is named 'choi sum' , 'the heart of veg', a veg that is grown for the core, with outer leaves discarded. I bought because of the positive reviews, now I remember why I avoided this vegetable for ages. I am not hopeful it will improve, but hey, green leaves are good for you.
Very Fresh and Tasty
These always arrive looking very fresh. I stir fry with garlic and soy sauce. Really simple to cook. Tastiest greens.
Good quality
I get a packet or two almost every shop. Handy for no-fuss noodles or fried rice.
