  • About

Chinese broccoli is so hearty and flavorful that you can boil the leaves in water with a pinch of salt, puree the mixture, and serve it as soup with nothing else added. In Japan we found many dishes like this one, using the freshest ingredients in simple ways with shockingly complex results. Following the “let your ingredients speak” theory, try to practice restraint here and resist overembellishing an already perfect food.
