Often called "Cameron
Highlands Spinach" (referring to where it is grown), this spinach is also known by
its Cantonese name, poh choy.
Health benefits: May reduce risk of cancer, antioxidant protection, may protect against eye degeneration, lessens chance of spina bifida, helps avoid and relieve anaemia, and provides plenty of potassium.
Cautions: People with, or who have had gout, or kidney or bladder stones, should avoid spinach due to its high content of oxalates.
It can be cooked in any style, but benefits from only subtle seasoning to allow its own flavour to dominate.
Storing
Chill spinach, wrapped, until ready to use.
