EN: Bok choy; Chinese cabbage
The default leafy green in many Filipino dishes like nilaga and bulalo. It's affordable, readily available in any palengke, and absorbs the soup's flavor really well. If your life feels bland, maybe you just need some pechay... in a super savory broth. It's the wingman of vegetables.
From Hokkien Chinese 白菜 (pe̍h-chhài), meaning 'white cabbage'.
A staple vegetable in Filipino cuisine. 'Pechay Baguio' refers to Napa cabbage.
